Must Ask Income Statement Questions
- What is the reporting period for this statement (start and end dates)?
Clear dates keep data consistent and make comparisons month over month. Lenders and tax pros need time-bounded figures to validate performance.
- What were total revenues this period, broken down by source (product, service, subscriptions, other)?
Source-level revenue shows what drives growth and where to focus. It also reconciles easily with invoices and receipts, improving accuracy.
- What were your cost of goods sold (COGS) and how did you calculate beginning and ending inventory?
Detailing COGS and your inventory method (FIFO/LIFO/average) makes gross profit reliable. It prevents misstatements that can mislead budgets and pricing decisions.
- Which operating expenses did you incur by category (payroll, rent, marketing, software, fees)?
Categorized expenses reveal trend lines and cost-saving opportunities. If you track processing fees or merchant terms, align them with records from your Payment information form.
- Did you record any non-operating items, such as interest income/expense, taxes, or one-time gains/losses?
Separating these items keeps operating margin clean and makes net income easier to explain. It also improves forecasts by removing noise from core operations.
