Document Summary

Learning objectives: the income statement, the balance sheet, measuring cash flow. An income statement, or profit and loss statement, indicates the amount of profits generated by a firm over a given time period, such as 1 year and in its basic form can be represented as follows: More specifically: sales (revenue) - cost of goods sold = gross profit. Gross profit operating expenses = operating income (ebit) Operating income interest expenses = earnings before taxes. Earnings before taxes = income taxes = net income. The operating income is the result of the operating activity, while the earnings before taxes keep in consideration, both the operating activity and the financial activity. The final output is the net income which represents income that may be reinvested in the firm (retained earnings) or distributed to its shareholders. To evaluate an income statement we should make a percentage of every item on the sales, which is what is called common-sized income statement.
