I'll say this one time, I am calm.
Anyways overall revenue != overall profit. It just means they 14b in assets, not that they have 14b.
Revenue is amount earned between some period, I guess in this context, a year. It isn't assets. If their revenue was 14b (I heard they made less) in 1 year, they earned that much money that year. No, this does not include paying off people and other bills. Profit is revenue minus the producing costs. Seriously, this is basic definitions in economics. Some of the definitions I used may be oversimplified, but the general point is the same.
