In the public sector, profits are typically not generated in the same way as in the private sector, as many public entities operate on a non-profit basis. Any surplus revenue generated by public enterprises is usually reinvested into services, infrastructure, or community programs to benefit the public. Additionally, profits from state-owned enterprises may contribute to government budgets, funding public services such as healthcare, education, and transportation. Ultimately, the focus is on providing value to the community rather than distributing profits to shareholders.
The aim of a public sector business, is to make profits just like the private sector. Public sector is run by the government on behalf of the public and mostly offer government services.
