Answer of the Day :
Income refers to the total earnings that a company generates from its operations and other activities over a specific period, including revenue and any other income sources. It is typically reported on the income statement as the net profit after expenses have been deducted.
Revenue, on the other hand, is the total amount of money received by the company for goods sold or services provided, before any expenses are deducted.
Example:
- A company sells products worth ₹1,00,000 in a month (this is its revenue).
- It incurs costs like production, salaries, and other operational expenses totaling ₹70,000.
- Therefore, the income (or profit) would be ₹1,00,000 (revenue) - ₹70,000 (expenses) = ₹30,000 (income).
This distinction is crucial in understanding financial statements and evaluating a company's performance.
