What is revenue expenditure with example?

What is revenue expenditure, anyway? Ugh, I still get a little stressed thinking about it. It’s all those everyday expenses, you know? The stuff a business – or even just a person, honestly – has to pay just to keep things running. Like, remember that time I had to scramble to pay the rent because my freelance gig dried up for a month? Pure agony, that was. That’s revenue expenditure.

It’s rent, sure, but also those crazy property taxes – I swear, they keep going up every year! – and the utility bills that seem to magically increase every time I look at them. Don’t even get me started on salaries! Paying my employees is a huge chunk of my monthly outgoings, and that’s before I even think about my own paycheck. It’s a constant drain, honestly, a real black hole of money. You’re always paying out, always chipping away at profits. And what do you get in return? Nothing you can really show, unlike, say, buying a new computer for the business. That’s an asset, something tangible. This is just…poof, gone.

It’s frustrating, isn’t it? All that money vanishing into thin air, just to keep the lights on and the coffee machine brewing. I once read somewhere that, on average, small businesses spend something like 60% of their revenue on these kinds of expenses. Sixty percent! That sounds about right from my experience, maybe even higher some months. It really makes you appreciate the need for good financial planning, especially when you’re self-employed. It’s a constant juggling act.
