Bus/Financial - Accounting | | German term or phrase: Abschreibungen / Ergebnissprung | Der gebremste Anstieg der Abschreibungen und ein verbessertes Zinsergebnis sollten zu einem noch stärkeren Zuwachs beim Ergebnis vor Steuern um 73 % auf 76 Mio. € führen.

| "Amortization = write-offs / Profit-leap"
Explanation:
"The slowed increase of write-offs, as well as improved interest results should lead to stronger turnovers still; increases which should result in a volume jump before taxes of 73%, to 76 Mil. €. A slightly declining tax rate, might then facilitate a profit leap of almost 80%"!
