Hi,

could you please tell me whether it is possible to say:

The results of the company should show a reasonable profit.

Thanks a lot!

I'd say yes, Hanka. It's not the most felicitous of statements but it'd work. What do you reckon might be wrong with it?

Thanks! I just didn´t know whether it was possible to say that "results show something".
