BASICALLY IT DEPENDS ON WHAT PURPOSE THE HOSPITAL HAS BEEN BUILT. IF IT HAS BEEN REGISTERED AS A SOCIETY THAT INCOME AND EXPENDITURE ACCOUNT AND ON THE OTHER SIDE, IF IT HAD BEEN REGISTERED AS A COMPANY THEN PROFIT AND LOSS ACCOUNT.

It depends upon the hospital whether it wants to maintain both either income and expenditure, or they want to maintain profit and loss a/c Bt both can be maintained

Income and expenditure accounts are generally prepaired by the non profit organisations. So, if the hospital is registered as a npo than the hospital can prepare an income and expenditure account.
