English translation:low actual
Explanation:
The "mini" means low turnover/sales and the "réel" means actual turnover/sales. The tax concerned is VAT.
Note that the above is a literal translation. There is not necessarily an equivalent in the UK, and of course VAT is not used in the USA. You may be better off keeping the French and adding an explanation in parentheses or as a footnote.
