  If this was already answered, pardon me.

The usual name of this report depends on the type of entity for which 
the books are kept (different for different types of entities).
For a club/organization this report would normally be called "statement 
of revenues and expenses" but in terms of the name in gnucash look for 
the" Income Statement".

This report would always be for an interval between two dates Gnucash 
can't read your mind, so each time you will need to set the start and 
end date. What I suggest is that you (first) simply tell the report to 
run, then when it is open, use Edit => report options to see ALL of the 
things you can specify. You can first set the dates, but then play 
around with other options till the report is to your liking. Those OTHER 
things you will probably choose to leave unchanged once you find the 
ones you prefer, but you will be setting start date and end date each 
time you run the report for a different month.
