Note that expenses in this context includes "normal profit".

If by that you mean "a thin margin on top of parts, labour, shipping,
and handling" then fine.

No it is a profit equivalent what else profit you could have gotten.

If we go from macro economics to business, then consider it the
interest you could get from putting your money in a savings account
or invest in government bonds. If you business gives less profit than
those, then you will (at least if you are profit maximizing) put
the money in them.
