Multi-Step Income Statement

Practice Multi-Step Income Statement with 21 accounting challenges on Accountely — instant IAS/IFRS-compliant scored feedback on every submission.

What multi-step income statement covers

A multi-step income statement separates results into stages — gross profit, operating profit, then profit before and after tax — so a reader can see which part of the business generated the result. The subtotals are the whole point: they distinguish trading performance from financing costs and one-off items.

These challenges give you a list of balances and ask for a correctly ordered statement with every subtotal in place.

Where marks are usually lost

  • Missing a required subtotal, which breaks the logic of the statement.
  • Classifying interest or tax as an operating expense.
  • Placing other income above gross profit.
