Profit & loss account (AKA income statement)

  • ๐Ÿ“… Duration: It's like a diary of a business's money matters over a period of time.
  • ๐Ÿ”ฅ Key Point: Shows if you're rolling in cash or crying in losses.
  • ๐Ÿฐ Parts
    • Trading Account
    • Profit and Loss Account
    • Appropriation Account

The trading account ๐Ÿ›’

  • Shows the difference between what you earned (sales revenue) and what it cost you.

  • Formula Fun! ๐Ÿงฎ

    • Gross profit = sales revenue - cost of sales.
    • Cost of sales = starting stock + purchases - ending stock.

    For instance, imagine you began with 500 chocolate bars. You bought 800 more, but by the end, you had 200 left. Your cost of sales: COGS = $500 + $800 - $200 = $1,100 (It's like you ate or sold 1,100 chocolate bars ๐Ÿซ)

    Now, say you sold 400 of them for $10 each. Gross profit? Gross profit = $4,000 - $1,100 = $2,900. (That's a lot of chocolates!)

The profit & loss Account ๐Ÿ’ธ

  • Highlights profit before all those extra adult things like tax and interest.

  • Extra adult things

    • Overheads (AKA indirect costs) like ads, office rent, etc.
    • Interest on loans
    • Company tax

Formula Time!

  • Profit before interest & tax = Gross profit - expenses
  • Profit before tax = Above profit - interest
  • Profit for the period = Above profit - company tax
