Trading means buying and selling. The trading account shows the result of buying and
selling of goods. End result of trading account is gross profit or gross loss. Following
are format for Trading Account.
Profit and Loss Account
After calculating the gross profit or gross loss the next step is to prepare the profit and
loss account. To earn net profit a trader has to incur many expenses apart from those
spent for purchases and manufacturing of goods. If such expenses are less than gross
profit, the result will be net profit. When total of all these expenses are more than
gross profit the result will be net loss.
