Wait, it depends.
I used a decimal point because I changed it to millions. So, if you change it to millions, no comma. And we would not say 13 thousand thousand. Either everything with commas, or as I have it written above. That is, 13,942,000 or 13.942 million.
If you are translating a set of financial statements, then the whole document may be expressed in "miles de euros". In that case, the best approach would be to maintain it as "xxxx thousand euro" (obviously with a comma) for consistency, particularly as you will almost certainly come across a phrase such as "estas cuentas anuales se presentan en miles de euros" and also figures such as "10 miles de euros", which you would be better off not translating as either 10,000 or 0.01 million.
Valeria, it is best to wait, according to the RulZ, 24 hours before choosing. Mike said 13,942,000, in "capital stock," but "capital stock" is not accurate. Better to say "Paid-in-Capital." Just do a Google Search. Take care!!
