Looking at the P&L we can see Total Income for the month was $98,241 which was a decrease of $3,540 (or 3%) in income from $101,780 the month before. This is about 11.9% under our budgeted income amount of $111,484.

The combined Cost of Goods Sold (COGS) was $53,914 which was less than the prior month’s $62,450 COGS due to a decrease in sales. This left WSO a Gross Profit of $44,326 before expenses.

There was in increase in Payroll costs with an offsetting decrease in accounting expenses from the prior month. After deducting the expenses from the Gross Profit WSO was left with a net income of $3,652 for the month.

 P&L Actual to Budget

This report that shows us how we are performing monthly compared to the approved budget. We did not meet our budget for the month in total income. This was partially offset by better than budgeted sales in Amazon and 7th Tradition Contributions.

Our expenses were 13% higher than budgeted, by $6,089, due mainly to the higher Payroll costs due to the hire of a new special worker, and payment of prior year unused vacation accrual. Overall, for the month we overperformed by $1,458 over a budget of $2,194, resulting in net income of $3,652.
