Key Concepts & Definitions

Revenue is the money earned from selling goods and services. It represents the total income a business receives before deducting any expenses. For example, if a company sells 1,000 units of a product at $10 each, its revenue is $10,000.

Costs refer to the expenses associated with running a business. These include wages, materials, rent, utilities, and other operational expenses. Costs are deducted from revenue to determine profit.

Profit is the financial gain that remains after subtracting costs from revenue. It is calculated as Revenue minus Costs. Profit serves as an incentive for businesses to operate efficiently and innovate.
