Calculation
In order to calculate the net income, total expenses need to subtracted from the total revenue including taxes and interest payments.
Net Income = [Total Revenue - Total Expenses]
A company wants to find its net income for the first quarter of 2022. Here are the numbers they are working with:
Total revenues: €50.000
Rent: €9.000
Utilities: €5.000
Payroll: €10.000
Interest expense: €1.000
Expenses = €9.000 + €5.000 + €10.000 + €1.000 = €25.000
Net Income = [€50.000 - €25.000]
Net Income = €25.000
