  1. Your net income will be less. The P&L (profit loss statement) will have all expenses throughout the month, quarter, or year and not all expenses are deductible.

    The P&L should contain your gross income (from operation, interest earned etc) less operating expenses (this will give you your gross margin), less sg&a (sales, general and admin costs and this will give you EBIT – earnings before income tax).

    You may be asked to prove your numbers are correct. If they want to check your income they may ask to see the invoices and a bank statement with deposits of the payments for the invoices.
