P/L Statements • What does P/L stand for? • Profit and Loss Statement. • During the month end process our accounting department with the help of the hotel managers reconciles all bank accounts, invoices, inventories, and creates our P/L Statement. • This statement allows you to see what you have made in revenues for each area of the hotel and what you have spent for each line item in the hotel. All of this is compared to your budget and last years numbers. • What does a P/L Statement look like….
