Laughable, but accurate.

Google for example does exactly this.

It's pretty common, all the biggest clouds are USA or China owned.

If this is the first time you'd to be responsible for budgets, working with the board, finance teams, HR, etc, then I'd recommend a general business management book like "The Personal MBA" to give you an introduction to the concepts and language that those teams will use.
