Decoding the P&L at the 2022 Fall Regionals

Printer-friendly versionPrinter-friendly version

Decoding the P&L for Booksellers, Managers, and Owners was presented at the Fall 2022 Regional Shows.

A bookstore’s profit and loss statement (P&L) is a critical tool for evaluating a store’s overall performance. Join ABA staff on a walk-through of a bookstore P&L statement as we lay a groundwork for understanding bookstore financials, decode individual line items to identify opportunities for improved profitability, discuss how to use ABA’s ABACUS Report, and consider ways to share financials with staff in a meaningful and cooperative manner.
