Monthly Report

The Monthly Report is the default report for the report system, and it opens automatically when you open the report system. This report is considered one of the, if not the most, important reports in the game.

The report summarizes your revenues and expenses for the last turn. It also generates a table containing data on all the vehicles you have in production or for sale.

We'll breakdown the top of the report into sections.
