Profit & Loss Account (Income Statement)

- Consists of:
- Revenue: Total income earned

- Profit (Loss): Net income (revenue minus expenses)

Relationship between Accounts

- The balance of the Manufacturing Account is transferred to the Trading Account as the cost of goods sold.
- The balance of the Trading Account is transferred to the Profit & Loss Account as the gross profit (revenue minus cost of goods sold).
- The gross profit is further reduced by operating expenses and other income/expenses to arrive at the net profit or loss.

Example

A manufacturing company has the following data for a period:

- Direct materials used: $50,000
- Direct labor: $75,000
- Manufacturing overhead: $30,000
- Sales revenue: $200,000
- Opening finished goods inventory: $25,000
- Closing finished goods inventory: $35,000

Manufacturing Account:

- Debit: $50,000 + $75,000 + $30,000 = $155,000
- Credit: $25,000 (opening WIP) + $35,000 (closing WIP) = $60,000
- Balance (cost of goods manufactured): $95,000

Trading Account:

- Debit: $25,000 (opening FG) + $95,000 (cost of goods manufactured) = $120,000
- Credit: $200,000 (sales revenue) + $35,000 (closing FG) = $235,000
- Balance (gross profit): $115,000

Profit & Loss Account:

- Revenue: $200,000
- Expenses: $120,000 (gross profit), $45,000 (operating expenses), $5,000 (other income)
- Profit: $20,000 (net profit)
