Context: Same list as earlier question so no real context.
I have in the list 'MP' i.e. Matière Première = Raw Materials, but struggling with PM. Don't think it's a typo as it appears in several places. The accounts are for a large meat processing company that buys and sells cattle as well as transforming into meat products.

Deadweight
PM might stand for poids mort, or deadweight, as in the total amount of deadweight meat produced and used. Good luck!

French term (edited):
PM = pourcentage marge
percentage margin
Sadly, I haven' seen your other question, so have no idea what this is all about.
But I have come across sets of abbreviaitons like this used in this sort of way (though not this specific one, alas!)

No idea, I'm afraid, Chris! It's all in the context...

Anyway, forget this idea, since I see you already have 'marge brute' and of course the agreement here is M, so it coudn't be 'marge' (unless, of course, the agreement was with 'pourcentage'!)
Are these table column headings? If so, do the table figures give any clues?

Note from asker:
| Thanks Tony, but how does this fit with 'produit' or 'consommé'? |
| Hi, Tables not much help as figures are figures. I'll have lunch then look at it again. |
