Norwegian term

Verdiskapning

Norwegian to English Bus/Financial Economics general expression
metoden har vært kjent lenge uten at nevneverdig verdiskapning er realisert av den.

Verdiskapning og inntjening/fortjeneste, er jo forskjellige ting, så ord som; yield, profit(s), return, proceeds, blir upresise, men er hittil de eneste forslagene ordbøkene mine gir. Noen bedre forslag for begrepet "verdiskapning"?
