Prezados Colegas,
Gostaria de saber a melhor tradução da expressão "Resultado das Despesas Operacionais Administrativas" no âmbito de uma demonstração de resultado, no seguinte contexto:
"(-) Créditos PIS/COFINS Reg. Não Cumulativo
(-) Créditos COFINS Reg. Não Cumulativo
Custo dos Serviços Prestados
RESULTADO DESPESAS OPERAC. ADMINISTR.
Gostaria de confirmar se devo traduzir o termo "RESULTADO" como RESULT neste contexto. Em caso contrário, qual seria a solução mais adequada?
Desde já agradeço sua valiosíssima contribuição!!

"Office expenses" would also fit well.

Could you explain your retiscence a bit better as "despesas administrativas", without the uncessary words, seems a lot like what I suggested. All Q&A in good fun of course, I'd just like to know your reasoning. Wishing you a great Sunday.. Douglas
Peer comment(s):

neutral Fabian Deckwirth : Because it is the summary of all expenses (hence the capital letters) and because some Brazilian balance sheets use the technically unnecessary "operacionais" in "despesas operacionais administrativas" instead of the simpler "despesas administrativas".

As I say, Keep It Short and Simple. You still don't get a kiss as I presume you are male, C'est la vie (or as the French say: That's life!)
neutral Marlene Curtis : Just "administrative costs" won't do.

Today I would like to discuss the administrative cost results for the Blue Cross Blue Shield plans. Serving approximately 100 million members, collectively, the 39 Blue Cross Blue Shield Plans are the largest factor in the United States health insurance market. Our universe is comprised of 24 of those plans, 59% of the total, and one-third
of all Blue Cross Blue Shield membership.
Peer comment(s):

neutral Douglas Bissell : don't really like the term "results" for some reason I'm afraid your Sherlock link doesn't work. What was the message?
