Which would mean they're not clearing a $250,000+ profit, wouldn't it?

Are they taxed on the profit or the gross?

The way Obama explained the other night: they'd get taxed at the extra percentage on everything above the 250k mark. So they'd be taxed as normal up to 250k and would pay an extra 3 or 4 percent on everything above that. My guess is that's worked out on income rather than profit.

I was under the impression companies are income taxed on profit.
