If you wanted something else please let me know. Net Assets - this is a term usually used in non-profits, but it is basically the same as net worth or shareholder's equity. It is Assets - Liabilities. Net Profit - This is what is left after you subtract all of your expenses from all of your revenue. It is commonly referred to as "the bottom Line" because it is the final figure on the Profit & Loss or Income Statement. Net Loss - This is the same as net profit, but if you have more expenses than revenue you will have a net loss instead of net profit. Gross Profit - This is revenue (or sales) minus Cost of Goods Sold. It is a term usually used for businesses that sell things (not service businesses). If you look at a Profit & Loss Report you will usually see Revenue or sales at the top, then Cost of Goods Sold is deducted to arrive at the Gross Profit. Then the other operating expenses of the business are deducted to arrive at the Net Profit or Net Loss. I hope this is what you were looking for, if not please let me know!
