Profit and Loss Statement
This table essentially contains the same basic information as the income projection statement. Established
businesses use this form of statement to give comparisons from one period to another. Many lenders may
require profit and loss statements for the past three years of operations.
Instead of comparing actual income and expenses to an industrial average, this form of the profit and
loss statement compares each income and expense item to the amount that was budgeted for it. Most
computerized bookkeeping systems can generate a profit and loss statement for the period(s) required,
with or without budget comparison.
