Governmental units typically do not seek to make a profit in the same way that private businesses do. Their primary goal is to provide services and meet the needs of the public, funded through taxes, fees, and grants. While they may aim for efficiency and cost-effectiveness, any surplus revenue is usually reinvested into public services rather than distributed as profit.
