v Statement

The income statement reports a company's profitability during a specified period of time. The
period of time could be one year, one month, three months, 13 weeks, or any other time interval
chosen by the company.

The main components of the income statement are revenues, expenses, gains, and losses.
Revenues include such things as sales, service revenues, and interest revenue. Expenses
include the cost of goods sold, operating expenses (such as salaries, rent, utilities, advertising),
and nonoperating expenses (such as interest expense). If a corporation's stock is publicly traded,
the earnings per share of its common stock are reported on the income statement. (You can
learn more about the income statement at Explanation of Income Statement.)
