Test Your knowledge

how can u do CA if u donot understand these basic concepts.
u need to read an good dictitionary.

you better go on for a nice dictionary, it will help you a lot.
there is no much difference between them, they are just similar not different

Expense is the cost of something
Expenditure is the process of spending or the amount of money spent

A good Questions ....really many many may confuse while dealing with the Terms..my explanation is:

- PROFIT Equals to INCOME Minus EXPENDITURE & INCOME is the sum total of INVOICES raised for Goods or Services.........normally used for Revenue nature of Transactions.
- INCOME is the Sum Total of all Invoices Raised for the Sales Activities of what ever nature & GAIN equals to SALES PRICE Minus COST OF PURCHASE..........normally used for Capital Nature of Transactions.
- LOSS equals to EXPENSES Minus INCOME & EXPENSES means sum total of Expenditure on various Account e.g. Man, Materials and machines.
-EXPENSES & EXPENDITURE as above already.

Sorry, this words or terms are key words that is taught in very begning  when any student start persuing CA or any Account Gratuation course

Expenses are actually related to CUrrent year which normally gets reflected in the cash or bank book where as the term Expenditure refers to the items which are being highlighted in the Profit and Loss account.  It also includes the previous or prior period items also
