In a Business, you either make a Lost or Profit. These are the two things you must expect in a business.

Mathematically, consider an Even Number broken. It is then, into two equal halves. i.e the two sides are balanced.

In reference to this question, lost and gain are both balanced. i.e they neither lost nor gained ( they broke even).
