A business loss is when a company loses money or value unexpectedly. This can happen when something goes wrong, like a natural disaster or damage to property. The amount of the loss is usually calculated by subtracting the selling price from the original cost. Sometimes, insurance can help cover the cost of the loss. If a company sells something for less than it cost to buy, that's also considered a loss. A loss can affect a company's finances and may require them to make changes to recover.
