Revenue

Revenue refers to the total income generated by a business from its sales of goods or services before any costs or expenses are deducted. It represents the money received from customers and is often referred to as the "top line" figure on a company's income statement. Revenue is crucial for a company's operations, as it funds expenses, investments, and profits. Understanding revenue is essential for assessing a company's performance and overall financial health. Changes in revenue can indicate how well a business is doing in the market and its ability to grow and meet customer demand.
