Difference of the Statement of Comprehensive Income of a Service Company and of a Merchandising Company
The main difference of the Statements of the two types of business lies on how they generate their revenue. A
service company provides services in order to generate revenue and the main cost associated with their service is the cost
of labor which is presented under the account Salaries Expense. On the other hand, a merchandising company sells goods
to customers and the main cost associated with the activity is the cost of the merchandise which is presented under the
line item Cost of Goods Sold. In presenting these items on the Statement of Comprehensive Income, a service company
will separate all revenues and expenses (as seen in the single-step format) while a merchandising company will present
total sales and cost of goods sold on the first part of the statement which will net to the company’s gross profit before
presenting the other expenses which are classified as either administrative expenses or selling expenses (as seen in the
multi-step format).
