Profit and loss statement:
A record of a firm's activities over a period of time. In contrast to the balance sheet, which indicates financial position at a moment in time, the profit and loss statement considers how well a firm has operated over a given time period, showing the revenues and expenses. The net of these is the accounting profit earned. Also called income statement.
