Fiscal year

« Back to Glossary Index

A “fiscal year” in accounting refers to a 12-month period that a business or organization uses for financial reporting and planning purposes. Unlike the calendar year, which runs from January 1 to December 31, a fiscal year can start and end on any date. The choice of the fiscal year depends on the preferences and needs of the business or organization.
