Red Spoon: Net profits are the actual profit you gain from a business after subtracting all the expenses generated from the said business. A growth of 10% weekly in the net profit means that every week, my net profits are 10% larger than they were the previous week. What I'm saying here is that I never specified what amount my net profit is. If my previous net profit had been, say, 2000 dollars, that means this week I would have a net profit of 2200 dollars. If, however, my previous net profit was 50 quintillion dollars, for example, then a 10% growth would mean 55 quintillion dollars for the next week. I'm referring to the fact that Mr. Alan is comparing specific numbers to percentages, a common amateur mistake.

I swear, if that's actual business math, then I am amazed.
