PLAIN-LANGUAGE DEFINITION
The total income generated by your business from selling goods or services before any costs are deducted. Also called 'top-line' income.
What to check
Revenue growth is not automatically profit growth. Compare sales trends with gross margin, cash collections, and the reporting period.
EXAMPLE / INTERPRETATION
Revenue of $750,000 means $750,000 in sales recorded for the period, not necessarily $750,000 in collected cash.
