Dutch term or phrase: bezettingsresultaat
Bezettingsresultaat is het verschil tussen de totale constante kosten in een bepaalde periode en de door de afzet terugverdiende constante kosten in die periode. Alleen als de werkelijke bezetting (werkelijke afzet die dat jaar gerealiseerd is) afwijkt van de normale bezetting (gemiddelde bezettig over een aantal jaar) is er sprake van een bezettingsresultaat. De constante kosten worden verdeeld over de afzet, die geldt bij normale bezetting.Daar in tegen kan de werkelijke bezetting ook groter zijn dan de normale bezetting. Dit kan zijn door dezelfde externe factoren, zoals klimaat en de economie. Maar dit kan ook gerealiseerd worden door bepaalde promotiecampagnes, zoals bijvoorbeeld spaaracties in samenwerking met de supermarkt.

neutral  xxxjarry: I think you answer does not capture the essence of the word "resultaat", which in this case is whether the variance in capacity usage is positive or negative.

  -> Yes, but there also exists negative profit: "Negative profit is known as loss. Therefore, profits are the compensation that owners of a business get for risking their capital".
