Russian term

отказался от содержания на компании B собственной убыточной фирмы

Russian to English Bus/Financial Business/Commerce (general) soderzhaniye
Company A owns Company B. Company A is doing very well. However, Company A "otkazalsia ot soderzhaniia na Company B sobstvennoi ubytochnoi fermy".

Is this something to do with allocating costs?

Russian term (edited): otkazalsia ot soderzhaniia na Company B sobstvennoi ubytochnoi fermy.
Selected

decided to discontinue (close down) a loss-making farm at company B

The idea is: Company A decided to close down a loss-making department (in this case - a farm, common practice in Russia when industrial companies had to operate own farms to ensure some degree of stability of basic food supply for their workforce) at its subsidiary B.

Good luck.

So now a farm is closed down - or even spun off (however, if it's loss-making I doubt there's a lot of eager buyers :-)
