1 00:00:28,350 --> 00:00:35,130 High in this session, we will discuss the income statement, it's a really exciting topic, and I really 2 00:00:35,130 --> 00:00:37,550 hope that you will enjoy it. 3 00:00:37,830 --> 00:00:45,780 Before we talk about the statement itself, let's ask ourselves, what is the objective of any business? 4 00:00:46,110 --> 00:00:52,410 Now, if you think of any business in the world, you will notice that the business is there to produce 5 00:00:52,920 --> 00:00:57,930 a product or service, sell it and make profit. 6 00:00:58,980 --> 00:01:03,180 So if you think of a dry cleaner. 7 00:01:04,170 --> 00:01:08,570 It all means to send you the service of cleaning your clothes. 8 00:01:09,840 --> 00:01:19,290 So sell that service to you, hopefully try to make some profits now in order to produce or make or 9 00:01:19,290 --> 00:01:25,110 provide any good or service, any business will have to incur some expenses. 10 00:01:25,500 --> 00:01:30,780 So the dry cleaner, for example, he or she will have to rent a shop. 11 00:01:30,780 --> 00:01:32,520 So they will pay for some rent. 12 00:01:32,760 --> 00:01:35,040 They may have to hire people to help them. 13 00:01:35,040 --> 00:01:36,510 So they would pay salaries. 14 00:01:36,900 --> 00:01:41,660 They have to pay for electricity and utility bills and so on and so forth. 15 00:01:42,060 --> 00:01:50,420 So in order to be able to produce or provide a goods or service, you must incur some expenses. 16 00:01:51,090 --> 00:01:55,300 And once you prepare these services and goods, you going to sell them. 17 00:01:55,530 --> 00:01:59,980 So selling them will generate some revenue to you. 18 00:02:00,210 --> 00:02:06,270 So there is a report in business called the Income Statement. 19 00:02:06,540 --> 00:02:16,280 And in that report, the business will summarises its revenue and expenses for a period of time. 20 00:02:16,560 --> 00:02:20,020 Now, usually this is prepared at the end of each month. 21 00:02:20,430 --> 00:02:27,800 So for most of these businesses, at the end of the month, they will prepare the income statement. 22 00:02:27,930 --> 00:02:33,370 And in that statement, it will show how much revenue they earn throughout the month. 23 00:02:33,870 --> 00:02:39,210 What was the expenses throughout the month? 24 00:02:39,520 --> 00:02:41,940 And this is the income statement. 25 00:02:42,270 --> 00:02:52,500 Let's take this example of a simple business model where we have a drink that now, if we learned this, 26 00:02:52,500 --> 00:03:01,680 a few details about the business and you can see the business model is to buy the cans of drink from 27 00:03:01,680 --> 00:03:12,030 a supplier, maybe make them cold and nice to drink and offer them directly to the people walking past 28 00:03:12,030 --> 00:03:13,290 the area. 29 00:03:13,560 --> 00:03:17,290 So these are some numbers related to that business. 30 00:03:17,620 --> 00:03:25,650 Now, if we take one month, which is, for example, January, and we try to figure out how much profit 31 00:03:26,040 --> 00:03:31,700 did the business make, and to do that, we need to prepare what we call the income statement. 32 00:03:31,950 --> 00:03:36,990 Remember when we learned last session about the purpose of accounting? 33 00:03:36,990 --> 00:03:42,720 We said the first question to answer accounting is how much profit did the business make? 34 00:03:42,930 --> 00:03:45,990 And this is where the income statement comes in. 35 00:03:46,200 --> 00:03:49,800 So let's see what revenue we made. 36 00:03:49,830 --> 00:03:55,020 So remember, profit is the difference between revenue and expense. 37 00:03:55,410 --> 00:04:03,270 So if you're looking at the profit for any business, you need to calculate the revenue, calculate 38 00:04:03,270 --> 00:04:06,950 the expense and see the difference between the two. 39 00:04:07,680 --> 00:04:12,670 And in this case, we said Jackson two thousand five hundred counts. 40 00:04:12,690 --> 00:04:15,930 We know that each car is sold for three pound. 41 00:04:16,090 --> 00:04:20,820 So in total revenue, he made seven thousand five hundred bound in January. 42 00:04:21,240 --> 00:04:23,990 Now, what expenses did he end up? 43 00:04:24,300 --> 00:04:33,270 Now the cost of the accounts he sold, the cost of sales, the cost of goods sold, all different names 44 00:04:33,270 --> 00:04:40,470 for the same thing will be two thousand five hundred because we know each count he buys from the supplier 45 00:04:40,470 --> 00:04:41,360 for one pound. 46 00:04:42,150 --> 00:04:50,460 Now he paid obviously all these other expenses total expense for the month of January three thousand 47 00:04:50,460 --> 00:04:51,840 eight hundred sixty. 48 00:04:52,260 --> 00:04:58,200 So if the revenue was seven thousand five hundred on the total expenses, three thousand eight hundred 49 00:04:58,200 --> 00:05:04,740 and sixty, that means the business made a profit of three thousand six hundred and forty. 50 00:05:05,190 --> 00:05:10,590 Now it's important to look at some different types of profits. 51 00:05:10,830 --> 00:05:17,130 The first one, what we call the gross profit, and sometimes we call this the first level of profit. 52 00:05:17,460 --> 00:05:24,140 And here we only look at the difference between revenue and the cost of sale. 53 00:05:24,450 --> 00:05:27,300 So we ignore the other expenses. 54 00:05:27,300 --> 00:05:28,680 We try to look at. 55 00:05:28,920 --> 00:05:34,920 How much profit did the company make after taking into consideration? 56 00:05:34,920 --> 00:05:38,430 Only the cost of this is called the gross profit. 57 00:05:39,090 --> 00:05:45,120 In Jack example, that will be seven thousand five hundred minus two thousand five hundred and that 58 00:05:45,120 --> 00:05:46,960 will be five thousand. 59 00:05:47,490 --> 00:05:51,560 The second type of profit is what we call operating profit. 60 00:05:51,690 --> 00:05:53,760 And here we look at the. 61 00:05:54,770 --> 00:06:03,340 Revenue minus cost of sales, minus all the expenses or just simply the gross profit minus book, the 62 00:06:03,950 --> 00:06:05,420 all the expenses. 63 00:06:05,600 --> 00:06:10,520 So for Jack that will be three thousand six hundred and forty. 64 00:06:11,300 --> 00:06:16,720 We have another definition or another time, which is the net profit. 65 00:06:17,030 --> 00:06:24,560 And this is simply just the bottom line, which is the operating profit minus the taxes, and that will 66 00:06:24,560 --> 00:06:25,790 give you the net profit. 67 00:06:26,090 --> 00:06:31,780 Now, the income statement structure, there is a way to prepare the income statement. 68 00:06:32,030 --> 00:06:38,270 So once you identify the account, you know what to include in the income statement, which is revenue, 69 00:06:38,270 --> 00:06:44,190 cost of sales, then you have your gross profit expenses, operating profit, taxes, net profit. 70 00:06:44,510 --> 00:06:51,980 This is the structure you need to follow and clearly you need to adhere to these details. 71 00:06:52,130 --> 00:06:54,630 So you always start with the business name. 72 00:06:54,740 --> 00:06:58,820 So Jack drinks in this example, we write the name of the statement. 73 00:06:58,830 --> 00:07:03,130 So that's income statement for and you write what period? 74 00:07:03,380 --> 00:07:05,790 And then you just write these details. 75 00:07:06,050 --> 00:07:07,780 Remember the income statement? 76 00:07:07,790 --> 00:07:10,960 It's more like a video, more like a recording. 77 00:07:11,120 --> 00:07:17,280 So we recording the transactions for each of these accounts throughout the period. 78 00:07:17,540 --> 00:07:24,440 So if we look, for example, of the cost of sale and its two thousand five hundred, that means during 79 00:07:24,440 --> 00:07:33,230 the month of January, the accumulated value of all the financial transactions impacting the cost of 80 00:07:33,230 --> 00:07:35,760 sin was two thousand five hundred. 81 00:07:36,170 --> 00:07:40,220 So this is all you need to know above the income statement. 82 00:07:40,230 --> 00:07:46,880 You should now know what accounts to include in the income statement, why we prepared it and what is 83 00:07:46,880 --> 00:07:48,890 the structure of the income statement. 84 00:07:48,920 --> 00:07:54,590 I hope you enjoyed this lecture and I look forward to see you in the next one. 85 00:07:54,620 --> 00:07:55,490 Thank you very much.
