Spanish term or phrase: Cuenta de pérdidas y ganancias
This relates to the auditing of company accounts.

'xxx decide:
aprobar las cuentas anuales (balance, cuenta de pérdidas y ganancias y memoria)'

I'm guessing at a profits and losses account, but I'm sure there's probably a set term which I'm not aware of.

TIA

calculation of profit and loss


Explanation:
"Calculation" (= "cuenta"), i.e. as part of the annual "accounts" (="cuentas").

Not account, because that is usually associated with bank accounts (savings,cheque, etc.).

And not statement - because a statement does not necessarily arrive at any conclusions about the data contained in it.
