Question

Deviations between expected operating expenses and _____ serve as a "feedback loop" to launch more detailed financial analyses in an effort to pinpoint trouble spots and opportunities.

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct answer is operating revenues.

Explanation:

Operational or operating income is an accounting figure that measures the amount of profit obtained by the commercial operations of a business, after deducting operational expenses, such as salaries, depreciation and the cost of merchandise sold.

The operating income takes the gross income of a company, which is equivalent to the total income less the cost of merchandise sold, and subtracts all operational expenses.
