A deduction rate is a percentage that is deducted from sales, bets, income, etc. In publicly managed competitions, it may refer to the ``percentage deducted by the operator from the bet amount'', and in the case of taxes, it may refer to the ``percentage or amount that can be deducted from the taxable amount''. When learning about investments and economics, it is important to think about ``how much money is left after deductions'' rather than ``surface profits.''
