Hello
Everyone
And welcome to english pod
My name's arica and i'm marco
So marmarco
How are you doing
Today I'm
I'm
I'm happhappy to be ready
To deliver another great podcast for all our liststners that's right
And we've got an intermediate lesson today about we're money right and specifically spending money in a company right
Thewe're going to be listening to a business
As a company describes how they're spenenmoney right and they're actually looking at their profit and low statement so okkind of interesting well
Marichael
Can you tell us a little bit about a profit and low statement uh yeah short well all companies come out with a profit and low statement every year or every three months
And it's basically a document that shows all the money that the company is spending
And all the money that the company that earning
So it's a document that outlines how much money the company makes
And how much it spends right so in the end
Basically it'll tell you wewe're making money or we're losing money okay
So we're going to be listening to uh some people discuss a profin lost statement in just a moment
But before we do that it's time for vocabulary preview
Vocabulary preview okay
Great so today on our vocabulary preview
We have two words for you
So let's take a look at the first one expenses
Expenses
Expenses
Expenses
So expenses are things that you have to spend money on regularly right so for example in a company
Pergular company expenses are salaries or office supplies or the phone bills
Internet bills
Okay
And maybe in a household or a family
Your expenses might be your food perhaps
Your transportation or your rents or your heating bill
So these are all things
You spend money on regularly their expenses
Expenses
Great
Let's take a look at our second word
Through the roof
Through the roof
Through the roof
Through the roof
So when something is through the roof
It's really really really really high
Really high
So for example
We can talk about gas prices are through the roof
Lately
Yeah
That's totally true gas prices have gone really high in the past couple of months
So when we talk about through the roof
It means that the number is really high
That's right
We typically use this word with numbers
It also gives you the idea that the number has risen really quickly
Yeah
Exactly okay
Through the roof
Through the roof
All right
Marco didn't get it's time for the dialogue
Yep
Let's listen to the dialogue
As always the first dialogue is ggoing to be a little bit fast
So it might be a little bit difficult
But don't worry
If you don't understand everything
Because we will explain all the key language in a minute
Okay
So now the last point on our agenda jail let's over the profit and law statement
Great
What the main issue here as you can see
Is that our expenses are true the roof
These numbers are off the charts
What's going on here
Well
Arm sir
The company expenditres on entertainment and travel are out of control
Look at these bills for example
Just this month we paid over twenty thousand dollars for hotel charges
Okay
Thank you
All look into it
The list goes on and on here
This is a bill for five thousand dollars for spott treatment
Thank you that will be all
I'll take care of it
Look at this ones
Sir
Eight thousand dollars were expensed in one night
At a place
Called wild thing
Ok
I get it thank you for your very thorrow analysis
Okay
So this accountant she's a pretty therrow
Heh
She's really persistent about her job and the manager apparently is a little bit embarrassed um
I wonder why that could be
We'll talk about that in a little while
Why don't we take a look at her language take away for today language take away in today's language take away
We're going to look at three words and the first word is expenditures
Exditures
Expenditres
Expenditres
So expenditure sounds
Pretty close to expenses right it's pretty similar
But it has a little bit of a difference
So why don't we listen to some examples
And see if we can understand example one
Examase exexentages on health percent example two
We really need to control our travel expenditres from now on all managers will fly economy class example three
Because of the rise in oil prices
Expenditres on food are higher than they have ever mean
So expenditure is the total amount of money that you're spending on something right that's the total amount of money
Versus expenses is the things that you spend money on
Okay
That's really clear our next word is out of control
Out of control
Out of control
So when something is out of control
It's
It's crazy
Crazy
You can't control it
Exactly you can't stop it
You can't stop it out of control
Okay
Great now
Let's take a look at our last word for today
Go over go over go over go over
So go over is a pretty simple word
Why don't we listen to some example
So we can understand go over example one
I need to go over the support one last time to make sure there are no mistakes can you help me over my perfect example three
Let's go over these numbers
One more time and make sure
There are no mistakes yeah
This is a really common word
And it basically means look at carefully yeah
Or review in english
We often find simple little words they fit together really well
And you think they're so easy
Like the word go over so easy yeah
But it's the way that they interact with each other that makes them
Or it makes you sound much better exactly so go over in this case
We might say um let's go over the lesson
Let's go over the lesson yeah
That sounds great
Yeah
That's
And that's a more natural way of saying
Something like that okay
So we've taken look at our language takeways for today
I think it's time to listen to the dialogue
One more time
And this time the dialogue will be slower
So we can understand and listen to all the words
We just talk about all
嗯
Okay
So now the last point on our agenda joill let's go over the profit and lost statement great
Well
The main issue here as you can see
Is that our expenses are through the roof
Let's see these numbers are off the charts
What's going on here
Well
Um sir the company expenditres on entertainment and travel are out of control
Look at these bills for example just this month we've paid over twenty thousand dollars for hotel charges
Okay
Thank you
I'll look into it
对
The list goes on and on here
This is a bill for five thousand dollars for spot treatments
Thank you
That will be all
I'll take care of it
Look at this one sir very ththllars exexpensed in one night at a place called while things
Okay
I get it
Thank you for your very thorrow analysis
Okay
So i got it
Yeah
It's clear now yeah
And you know
I heard a lot of really great phrases in the dialogue
But i'd like to look at now in fluluency
Builder
Fluency y da great
So today on fluency build that we have three words for you
Let's start by looking at the first one off the charts
Off the charts
Off the charts
Off the charts
So this word is very similar to throw the roof
Exactly it also means really high
Right
So let's listen to some examples on how we can use off the charts in a different situation
Example one
Oil prices have gone up
And our costs are off the charts
Example three
Our losses are half the charts
That's it no bonuses for anyone
So marco do you think i can change off the charts for through the roof in these examples
Yeah
You can definitely you can use off the charge or through the roof
Both of them mean the same thing okay
So two ways of anang
Really really
Really high
Really high
But they're very commonly used in a business setting
Yeah
That's true ok
So this next next dda phphase that you can
Can If
If you want to tell somebody
You'll ll check something lell
Investigate something right
And we heard it in our dialogue
So let's listen to the clip
I look into it
I look into it
So look into that
That means i'll check something
Yeah
I'll see what happening
Yes does it mean you're going to take acaction
No
It esn't ookso so think think 've got another word that does mean you're going to take action
I'll take care of it
I'll take care of it
So this word means that you're going to do something about it
I'll take care of it
I will take responsibility
Exactly so i will do something about it
Yeah
Will investigate
And i'll do it
Yeah again too great phrases all look into it
I'll take care of it
Okay
So now let's listen to the dialogue
A third time
It's gna be at its normal speed
But now you have all the tools
You need to understand it a lot that okay
So now the last point on our agenda jill let's go over the profit in law statement great what the main issue here as you can see
Is that our expenses are ruthe the of of of these numbers are off the chart
What's going on here
Well i'm sir r the expenditures on entertainment and travel are out of control
Look at these bills for example just this month 've paid over twenty thousand dollars for hotel charges
