Unit
الوحدة
Definition
A unit is the smallest part of the business that has its own P&L and its own capital decision: a branch, a brand in a city, a channel or, in FMCG, a product line in a trade account. Revenue Engineering manages units rather than totals, because scale multiplies whatever the unit already is, profit or loss.
In plain words
The one thing you judge on its own books: a branch, a brand in a city, or a sales channel.
