4. Understanding the P&L statement

In the previous video, we looked at how to analyze the annual report of a company. The other important statement that companies publish is their Profit and Loss statement (P&L). A P&L statement has the revenues, expenses, taxes, and the profits or losses of a company for a given period. Analyzing a P&L statement will give you a sense of the financial position of the company.

In this video, we look at the components of a P&L statement and how to analyze them.

Hi, i am watching varsity lecture series for quite a few days and it is very informative and knowledgeable. Everything is good but I think there is a problem while looking at key takeaways, as varsity logo is hindering key takeaway note in the middle. Please look into this matter and resolve it, if possible

could you please clarify how dividend income can classify as revenue in company's income statement?

[ratishjain]

Topline revenue - expenses = operating profit
operating profit - tax = proft after tax(bottom line)
