When to use it.
Profit and Loss is a monthly spreadsheet for studios, agencies and freelancers who want to see how the business is really doing. Income from retainers, projects and workshops comes first, then direct costs like freelancers, then overheads. The sheet works out gross profit, net profit and both margins every month and for the half year, so a slow month or a creeping cost shows up straight away.
Made for
- Freelancers who bill by the hour or day
- Studio and agency owners
