define the REVENUE

Answer Posted / triloksharma71

For a company, this is the total amount of money received
by the company for goods sold or services provided during a
certain time period. It also includes all net sales,
exchange of assets; interest and any other increase in
owner's equity and is calculated before any expenses are
subtracted. Net income can be calculated by subtracting
expenses from revenue. In terms of reporting revenue in a
company's financial statements, different companies
consider revenue to be received, or "recognized", different
ways. For example, revenue could be recognized when a deal
is signed, when the money is received, when the services
are provided, or at other times. There are rules specifying
when revenue should be recognized in different situations
for companies using different accounting methods, such as
cash basis and accrual basis.
