Profit Net

Terme généralement ambigu. Sa signification dépend de la personne à qui vous vous adressez : pour un commerçant, c'est le Chiffre d'Affaires Brut. Pour les gens de la Production, c'est le Bénéfice Brut. Enfin pour les financiers, c'est la dernière ligne du Compte de Résultat, à savoir, le Résultat net.
