Explanation:

This company's pro forma income statement shows the contribution to be made by a project and the projected after-tax income.  With it management can decide whether to accept the project or not.  Preparing this pro forma income statement also enables management to know the impact on profits that the project will make.  When the project is complete, this pro forma income statement becomes a basis for reviewing the actual income statement to understand variances.
