Letter N

Net profit

This is the income generated, by a self employed individual or company, after the deduction of all costs and charges, including interest costs, but before the deduction of tax.

As such this should be the amount that the individual or owners of the company have for their own benefit and therefore could be treated as their income level.

Many lenders take an average over three years, of a businesses net profits and also expect to see an increase on those profits over that time period in order to approve the lending.
