PROFIT AND LOSS STATEMENT FAQ
What is a Profit and Loss Statement?
A Profit and Loss Statement (P&L), also known as an income statement, is a key financial report that summarizes a business’s revenues, expenses, and resulting profit or loss over a specific period. It provides a snapshot of how well the company is generating income relative to its costs.
Why is a Profit and Loss Statement important?
It helps business owners, managers, and stakeholders evaluate profitability, identify trends in income and expenses, and monitor cost control. Lenders and investors rely on it to assess a company’s financial stability, while accountants use it to prepare accurate tax filings and compliance reports.
When should you use a Profit and Loss Statement?
A P&L can be prepared monthly, quarterly, or annually depending on the size and needs of the business. It should be used for tracking progress against financial goals, preparing for tax season, making informed management decisions, and presenting financial results to investors, lenders, or auditors.
What should a Profit and Loss Statement include?
It should clearly show total revenue, cost of goods sold, and gross profit, followed by operating expenses such as salaries, rent, and utilities. It should also reflect other income or expenses, interest, and taxes, leading to the final net income or net loss for the reporting period.
