Nugatory expenditure in government accounting refers to spending that is deemed trivial or insignificant, often lacking a meaningful impact on financial statements or public welfare. Such expenditures are typically small in scale, and their costs may outweigh the benefits they provide. In many cases, they are scrutinized to ensure that public funds are used efficiently and effectively. Identifying and minimizing nugatory expenditures is essential for maintaining fiscal responsibility in government budgeting.
Nugatory expenditure refers to costs that are insignificant or trivial in nature, often yielding little to no value or benefit. Common types include minor office supplies, small-scale promotional items, or low-impact maintenance costs. These expenditures may occur in various contexts, such as business operations, budgeting, or project management, where they are often overlooked but can cumulatively affect overall finances. Ultimately, identifying and minimizing nugatory expenditures can enhance efficiency and resource allocation.
Nugatory expenditure refers to spending that is considered trivial or worthless. Examples include purchasing inexpensive novelty items that provide minimal value, such as a cheap trinket or a single-use gadget.

These expenditures often do not contribute significantly to overall well-being or financial goals.
