What are the features of an income statement?
The income statement provides a comprehensive overview of a company’s financial performance. It encompasses various components, such as revenue, which signifies total sales; cost of sales, indicating expenses directly linked to production; sales, general, and administrative expenses, covering operational costs; other operating expenses; non-operating income and expenses; gains and losses from investments or asset sales; non-recurring items affecting income; ultimately culminating in net income, the final profit after all expenses. Additionally, earnings per share (EPS) quantifies the company’s profitability on a per-share basis, offering valuable insights for investors and stakeholders about its financial health and future prospects.
