So you're saying you can cut it out and increase profit by a percentage point? That's pretty huge.

I recall finance going ballistic on my division at one point because our profit margin dropped by a tenth of a percentage point (and yet was still well above fifty)

99.999% of corporations are way too wasteful to be complaining about a tenth of a percent on 50%+ margin.

Think of the savings of slashing that finance department staff :)

With 8 billion in revenue it hit differently I guess, yeah.
