Investing Word of the Day
Qu’est-ce qu’un compte de résultat ? The income statement primarily focuses on the company’s revenue and expenses (what they’ve earned and what they’ve paid for) during a particular period of time.

Companies may complete an income statement whenever they want, but typically they are completed quarterly (every three months) or annually.
