Basic acceptable format follows. Invest in quickbooks for the small business – worth the money – and could print you out a P&L in 10 seconds. Change the expense categories or cost of good sold (if he has none just remove it completely) as it applies to his business – the example below is generic so just follow that format. Center heading, use columns and align all the dollar amounts properly – can’t do that here sorry. Standard is to double underline net income at the end. Try searching web also – you might be able to find a free template to use – maybe microsoft office on the web would have free templates if you use office.
