    Review accounting question

    What is the proper heading for LLC reviewed financial statements? I always thought it was "Statement of Revenues and Expenses" instead of "Income Statement". My peer reviewer says it should be Income Statement. The good news is that I still get an unmodified report , but wonder what your opinion/experience is with this.

    Thanks.

    I believe the basis of accounting..

    determines the report headings not the type of entity.

    GAAP would be "Income statement"
    Income tax basis would be "Revenues and Expenses - income tax basis"

    Congratulations on the peer review.

      Thanks! I still have to respond to the "comment letter", but that's OK. The peer review isn't something I look forward to, but I do learn new things and the reviewer is helpful and nice. I had to ask her about goodwill disclosures last year and she kindly answered my question.

        STILL call them P & L's! (grin)

        Although when you think about it, you wonder how can a statement be both a profit AND a
        loss statement?
        Maybe it should be a "POL" statement.
