Understanding Profit Levels
- Gross Profit: Revenue minus direct costs of production. Shows product-level profitability.
- Operating Profit (EBIT): Gross profit minus operating expenses. Shows core business profitability before financing.
- Net Income: Bottom line after all costs, interest, and taxes. What shareholders actually earn.
Accounting vs Economic Profit
Accounting profit only considers explicit (out-of-pocket) costs. Economic profit also subtracts opportunity costs — what you could have earned elsewhere. A business with positive accounting profit may have negative economic profit.
