Gross vs Net

	Gross	Net
Meaning	Gross refers to the total amount before anything is deducted. Many important accounting statistics use this method, such as gross earnings and gross profit.	Net refers to the amount remaining after certain adjustments have been made for debts, deductions or expenses.
Gross vs Net Income	Gross income is the pre-tax net sales minus cost of sales. Also called gross profit.	Net income is what remains after subtracting all the costs (namely, business, depreciation, interest, and taxes) from a company’s revenues. It is sometimes called the bottom line. Also called earnings or net profit.
Examples	This is called double taxation because the corporation's gross income is taxed and the dividends paid out to owners are taxed again.	Net income is one of the most closely followed numbers in finance. Shareholders look at net income closely because it is the main source of compensation to shareholders of the company, and if a company cannot generate enough profit to adequately compensate owners, the value of shares will plummet. Conversely, if a company is healthy and growing, higher stock prices will reflect the increased availability of profits.

A) CAPITAL

When people want to set up or start a company, they need money, called capital. Companies can borrow this money, called a loan, from banks. The loan must be paid back with interest: the amount paid to borrow the money. Capital can also come from issuing shares or equities - certificates representing units of ownership of a company. The people who invest money in shares are called shareholders and they own part of the company. The money they provide is known as share capital. Individuals and financial institutions, called investors, can also lend money to companies by buying bonds- loans that pay interest and are repaid at a fixed future date.

Money that is owed - that will have to be paid - to other people or businesses is a debt. In accounting, companies’ debts are usually called liabilities. Long-term liabilities include bonds; short-term liabilities include debts to suppliers who provide goods or services on credit - that will be paid for later.

The money that a business uses for everyday expenses or has available for spending is called working capital or funds.
