1. 1稅前(稅前獲利、稅前盈餘)

    Pre-tax talks about money before the government takes tax. A company's pre-tax profit is how much it made, looking only at the business, before tax is taken away. You will also hear pre-tax loss, pre-tax income, and pre-tax earnings — all the same idea: the number still includes the slice that tax will eat. News and company reports love this word because it lets them show a bigger figure. Your own pay can be pre-tax too: the amount written before tax comes out. After tax is after-tax. Though actually, a bigger pre-tax profit is not extra cash in the pocket; tax still has to be paid.

    pre-tax 指扣稅之前的金額。公司的「pre-tax profit」就是只看營運、還沒扣稅的獲利,常見的還有 pre-tax loss、pre-tax income 這類搭配。新聞和公司報告常用它,因為數字看起來比較大。不過稅前獲利變大,並不表示實際到手的錢就多,稅一樣要繳。

組成pre- (before) + tax (money paid to the government).
