special charge

An ordinary cost of business excluded from income calculations.

• The term is meaningless under generally accepted accounting principles because “special charge” expenses do not meet the GAAP test for ex-traordinary items.

— Also termed one-time charge; unusual charge; exceptional charge. See extraordinary expense under EXPENSE; operating earnings under EARNINGS.
