Income statement Sankey diagram template

Use this simplified illustrative model to show revenue divided into costs and operating profit, then operating profit divided into tax and net income. It has no separate gross-profit stage and is not a complete accounting statement.

What this template helps explain

The example flow table below treats all figures as fictional thousands of dollars: Revenue -> Costs: 550, Revenue -> Operating profit: 450, Operating profit -> Tax: 90, and Operating profit -> Net income: 360. Costs plus operating profit equal revenue, and tax plus net income equal operating profit. Map line items to your own accounting definitions before using a chart in a report.

Revenue -> Costs: 550
Revenue -> Operating profit: 450
Operating profit -> Tax: 90
Operating profit -> Net income: 360

Check the reporting basis

Use one reporting period and currency, and define which costs are included. Check that revenue equals costs plus operating profit (1,000 = 550 + 450), and that operating profit equals tax plus net income (450 = 90 + 360). The figures here are fictional thousands of dollars.
