reporté (de l'exercice précédent) / à reporter (report à nouveau)


Explanation:
Je crois comprendre que les deux font référence au même type d'action (à savoir le report de bénéfice), mais à des périodes différentes:

-brought forward (b/fwd): report issu de l'exercice précédent;
-carried forward (c/fwd): report à nouveau issu de l'exercice qui vient de s'achever.

On retrouve fréquemment cette terminologie dans les états financiers en français.

Est-ce que cela correspond aussi à votre contexte (en admettant qu'il y en ait suffisamment! ;-) )?

neutral  Tony M: Explanation is not quite right: c/f refers to the figure to be carried over (to next page, or whatever); b/f refers to the object that has been carried over

solde à reporter(=b/fwd ) - solde à nouveau (c/fwd)


Explanation:
b/fwd = balance forward : solde que l'on reporte à la page suivante

c/fwd = carried forward : solde que l'on a reprté de la page précédente

--------------------------------------------------
Note added at 1 hr (2008-08-01 18:47:41 GMT)

Dans le cas de bénéfices non répartis, il s'agit du solde d'ouverture (= solde de fermeture de la période précédente) et du solde de fermeture de la période courante (qui devient le solde d'ouverture de la période suivante).

c/fwd — b/fwd
à reporter — reporté


Explanation:
It's important to get these the right way round: carried forward is the figure to be carried forward, brought forward is the figure that has been brought forward
