Gnucash currently provides Experimental Balance and Income Statement (= Profit & Loss) reports that support displaying multiple columns.
They are still experimental because of some glitches with price calculations case of multi-currency or stock market scenarios. If you don’t have those, the experimental reports probably will give you what you need.

I am an audit and accounting professional and I was astonished that GnuCash does not provide multiple periods reporting. Compared to Quicken, the GnuCash Reporting Engine is very poor. It doesn't help much to prepare an income statement for the current period. A basic data analysis feature of financial reports is to compare the current year-to-date data with the corresponding prior year data in order to draw conclusions from it (e.g. possible cost cutting measures)
