Here's a couple of reasons/examples why profit is subjective:
1) Inventory valuation methods (LIFO,
FIFO
, average cost, etc.)
Change the inventory valuation method, and the reported profit will change also.
2)
Depreciation methods
(straight line, double-declining balance, etc.)
Again, if the
depreciation method
is changed, reported profit changes too.
