unterm Strich


Explanation:
...und unterm Strich auch im Bereich/bei den Gewinnen vor Steuern/beim Jahresüberschuss vor Steuern und Zinsaufwendungen....

Unterm Strich im Sinne des Striches unter der aufgestellten Rechung... leider weiss ich nicht, ob der mathematisch/buchhalterisch einen speziellen Namen hat (NICHT der Doppelstrich ganz am Ende der Bilanz/Rechung)

disagree  Steffen Walter: "Resultat" ist im Deutschen in diesem Sinn nicht gebräuchlich. / In der Rechnungslegung/Bilanzierung spricht man vom "Ergebnis", nicht vom "Resultat". Im allgemeinsprachlichen Bereich sind die Grenzen natürlich fließend.
