    Why do you say largest in profit when the graphic states largest in revenue?

    Bellingham Costco was in the news a while back, due to the high percentage of BC plates in the parking lot.

    Don't confuse Revenue with profit (Income). Retail is a high volume, low margin business.

    Company Revenue NetIncome
    Costco $105B $2.0B
    Boeing $87B $4.6B
    Microsoft $78B $21.9B

    (sorry for the formatting, I haven't played with tables yet.)

    Very sad state when the largest money making company in Hawaii is a utility company selling electricity at the highest rate in the nation. :(

    Are they spreading of gross sales or net revenue? There is a huge difference
