EVIDENCIA 13: PROFIT AND LOSS

Companies sell products or services to the public or other businesses. A product might be
something to eat, or to wear or to play. A service is doing something for someone for
example, a hairdresser, a plumber or a childminder. Companies make money by selling their
product or service for more money than it costs to make or deliver. The extra money they
make is called Profit.
When a company doesn't make as much money as it costs to make the product or service
it is called Loss. Making Loss can lead the company to go out of business and people to lose
their jobs. Companies always try to make Profit from everything they sell.
It's not only companies that want to make profit, events like school fetes and coffee
mornings try to make a profit too, sometimes the money is for school funds or it might be
raising money for charity.
Trying to make Profit is a balancing act; events or companies have to find ways to keep their
costs as low as possible, the cheaper it costs to make a product or deliver a service the
bigger profit they can make when they sell it. But they also have to make sure that they
don't charge too much money for the product as people won't buy something that they
think is too expensive.
