Tania, a management accountant in a cosmetics company, is asked by her manager to calculate the profit or loss earned by the company in a given time period.

a. subtract the company's expenses from its revenue.

Explanation:

For computing the profit or loss we simply deduct all the expenses incurred from the revenue earned.

If the revenue is more than the expenses than it would profit to the company

And, if the revenue is less than the expenses than it would be loss suffered by the company

In mathematically,

Net income = Total revenues earned - all expenses incurred

And, the net loss = All expenses incurred - total revenues earned

Hence, the first option is correct
