Tappioita

Tappioita is the plural form of the Finnish noun tappio, meaning losses, especially in financial contexts. The term is commonly used in accounting, economics, business planning, and budgeting to refer to negative results or reductions in value. It can describe various kinds of losses, such as operating losses, impairment losses, or investment losses, and may refer to a single period or multiple periods.

In corporate reporting and financial analysis, tappioita are reported as part of the overall result for a period. They can be realized losses from actual transactions or impairments and anticipated losses that affect future outlooks. The term is often used in phrases like “suuria tappioita” (large losses) or “tappioita syntyi” (losses were incurred). Tappioita may arise from different sources, including declining sales, increased costs, write-downs of assets, or extraordinary events.

Grammatically, tappioita is the partitive plural form of tappio and is used when referring to an indefinite amount of losses or when the losses are the object of a verb. Example sentences include “Yritys kärsi suuria tappioita viime tilikaudella” and “Tappioita voidaan kompensoida tulevaisuuden voitoilla.” Related terms include tappio (loss), voitto (profit), tilinpäätös (financial statements), and tulos (result). In Finnish financial language, tappioita is a standard way to discuss negative financial outcomes across periods and contexts.
