    Profit margin - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
    I'm guessing they have a different definition between profit and profit margin.

    If I sold something for $130 which I bought for $100, then I would say I made a 30% profit. Profit margin on the other hand, is probably something different and I don't really care about since I'm not a salesman.
