The advantage of this is that when it comes to preparing annual financial statements, you could report by division at a summary level, as opposed to line by line (which is what IR wants).

eg
Income
- income category 1
- income category 2
- income category 3
Total Income
Less Expenses
- expenses category 1
- expenses category 2
- expenses category 3
Total Expenses
