Expense Report
What is an expense report?
An expense report lists all the business-related purchases made by an employee or a company in a specific time period.
For an employee, an expense report lists all expenditures made by an employee that they want to be reimbursed for, such as travel expenses, gas, meals and parking. A receipt should usually accompany each expenditure as proof of purchase. Employee expense reports are generally submitted monthly, or per company policy.
For a business, the expense report details all the expenditures made by the business during a time period, usually monthly, quarterly or yearly. The report is usually split into sections based on departments and the type of expense. This allows the company to understand how money is being spent within the company, and is also necessary for tax purposes.
