 Income statement - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Income statements for companies indicate how Net Revenue (money received from the sale of products and services before expenses are taken out, also known as the "top line") is transformed into Net Income (the result after all revenues and expenses have been accounted for, also known as the "bottom line").
Hence, part of the skill in understaning income statements and balance sheets is to see through the words.
