Chinese to English translations [PRO] Bus/Financial - Accounting | | Chinese term or phrase: 销售利税率 | | 销售利税率 |
| | | pre-tax return on sales | Explanation: According to the definition in lbone's Baidu page reference, 利税 = profit and tax = profit (net of tax) + tax = pre-tax profit.
Profit over sales = "(rate of) return on sales" , so it looks to me like "pre-tax (rate of) return on sales". This is a common enough term, although the usual Chinese equivalent is 稅前銷售收益率.

Or just "return on sales", as this is the ratio of pre-tax profit to total sales revenue.

Asker: There is another entry with "return on sales", so I am going to use "pre-tax return on sales" for this one.
