参考译文
什么是利润?
企业家要直接对生产负责。企业家从消费者那里得到启示从而决定他们需要什么,或者,就一个新产品而言,消费者可能需要什么。
对于不同的人来说,利润有着不同的意义。一些大众民意调查显示,许多人不能肯定什么是利润,但是他们认为利润肯定太大,而且是很大一笔来自消费者的钱。在工人们眼中,利润也许是企业主不公平地从他们本应更高一些的工资里剥削出的一笔钱。在商人看来,利润是总收入和总支出之间的差额。在1985年8月第二次棒球罢工平息之前的谈判中,球员工会声称雇主们牟取的利润达9100万美元,而据一家会计事务所的统计,利润应当为4300万美元,可是雇主们自己却说他们赔了900万美元。事实上,这三方都没有错。造成数字上出入的原因是每一方对利润的定义不一样。
