If you are referring to a business, or person; a loss year would be a year in which they have lost monetary value.
E.G. A company on the 1st of June 2011 is worth $320,000,000. At the beginning of June 2012, they are only worth $260,000,000. This may be due to a difficult market during the year, faulty management, or a lack of customers.
I am assuming the year, is the 'company year' and calendar year is just that... It can mean that the insurance company is releasing redundant loss reserves. This reduces the losses incurred in the current calendar year, reducing the loss ratio, and has no impact on the accident year results. Calendar year loss ratios generally measure financial performance while accident year loss ratios measure the quality of the currenty written accounts.
the loss after depreciation incurred during the year is called as cash loss
yes because the cash flow is in one day but the net loss is throughout the year.
Capital Losses Specifically for Corporations as per the internal revenue code section 1212: If a corporation has a net capital loss for any taxable year, the amount thereof shall be- (A) a capital loss carryback to each of the 3 taxable years preceding the year of the loss, but only to the extent- (i) such loss is not attributable to a foreign expropriation capital loss, and (ii) the carryback of such loss does not increase or produce a net operating loss for the taxable year to which it is being carried back; (B) except as provided in subparagraph (C), a capital loss carryover to each of the 5 taxable years succeeding the loss year; and (C) a capital loss carryover- (i) in the case of a regulated investment company to each of the 8 taxable years succeeding the loss year, and shall be treated as a short-term capital loss in each such taxable year.
In profit and loss account normally list all in the revenues and expenses and profit or loss for any particular fiscal year of company.
the total losses for the year ...
"Accident year loss ratio" is a term insurance companies use as an abbreviation for "the total amount of money lost to claims divided by the amount of premiums earned in a given calendar year."
$20,000
it depends on the year
You can claim a maximum capital loss of $3,000 each year and carry any remaining capital loss forward. This is AFTER netting it against capital gains. So if you have $20,000 capital loss and $15,000 in capital gains, your net would be a $5,000 loss. You can claim $3,000 of that loss this year and $2,000 next year. NOTE: The question states "short term capital losses" - no such animal. Until you hold the asset for a year or more, any gain or loss irealized from the sale of that asset s considered netted against your ordinary income. After a year the gain or loss is long term, or capital, and a long term loss can be used to off-set any capital gains to the full extent of your current yerar capital gains. If your capital loss exceeds the capital gains, you can apply up to $3,000 of the additional capital loss against your ordinary income. Any additional loss over $3,000 in the current year would roll forward to by used in future years.
Statment of profit and loss shows all revenues and expenses of specific fiscal year and how much net income or loss generated by business.
you can loss over 100 kilos if you do it for a year but you could die of starvation
