TERM OF THE WEEK

Extraordinary Item: Part of the profit and loss account of a company. Any material item which is abnormal, is not expected to recur and is derived from events or transactions outside of the ordinary activities of a company. Because the definition of ordinary activities is wide, it is rare that a company will show an extraordinary item in its accounts in any one year. Contrast with an exceptional item.
