Fiscal year
A fiscal year is a 12-month period that organizations use for financial reporting, budgeting, and tax purposes. Unlike a calendar year, it can start on any date and provides a consistent framework for structuring accounting records and preparing financial statements. This defined period is crucial for accurate tracking of revenue, expenses, and profits, which is essential for tax compliance and informed business management decisions.
