Revenue expenditures,also called income statement expenditures,are additional costs of plant assets that do not materially increase the assets' life or productive capabilities.

Revenue Expenditures

Costs that are expensed in the current period and not capitalized; they are for maintaining the earning capacity of existing assets rather than for new assets.

Income Statement Expenditures

These are expenses reported on the income statement, including costs associated with the operations of a business, such as cost of goods sold, administrative expenses, and interest on debt.

Plant Assets

Long-term tangible assets used in the operation of a business that are subject to depreciation.
