It is the excess revenue earned by an individual, company, or industry beyond what is needed to cover their costs and make a reasonable profit. In other words, it is the amount of money left over after subtracting all costs and expenses associated with producing or providing a good or service. Profit can also refer to any gain or advantage, such as personal growth, experience, or satisfaction derived from an activity or endeavor.
