Or think of advertising.
It's an expense you have to pay for.
advertising almost never returns a profit.

You spend money to make an ad.
You spend money to have it in circulation (billboards, commercials, etc).
The advertisement isn't going to return profits AT ALL.

Why do companies invest in advertising/marketing?
because it will bring attention to their other products that DO make a profit.
Think of the GTR as more or less something similar.

Is that more coherent?
Business strategies aren't always a simple matter of profit or loss for everything.
Like I said prior, what matters is the company makes money overall.

Also, please don't say "I understand what you're saying" when you clearly do not.
If there is something you aren't clear with, please express it.
I'll be more than happy to elaborate.
