Superprofit

Superprofit is a concept in Karl Marx’s, which is excess of the actual profit of an enterprise over the amount necessary to pay interest at a particular rate on the enterprise’s contributed capital. The term “superprofit” was first used by Karl Marx in Das Kapital. It was arising from structural unequal exchange in the world economy. Superprofit in Marxist–Leninist theory, is the result of unusually severe exploitation or superexploitation.
