Bookkeeping

Profit and loss account

The profit and loss account (winst- en verliesrekening) shows all revenue and costs over a given period, usually a full financial year. The difference between revenue and total costs is the net profit or loss. It reveals how well your business is performing and where the biggest cost drivers are. Together with the balance sheet it provides a complete picture of your business's financial health.
