Everyone sucks at everything. Until they don't. Not sucking is a product of time invested.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)
I'm not sure, but I'm confident it's correct, so I put it in spoilers.

EDIT: Ugh, dammit. Wrong again...

Gross, probably. Net wouldn't be net if you spent a percentage of it on R&D I think. Net should be the remaining money after all costs have been reducted from your gross profit.

Sorry, I don't know the English terms and I'm on my phone :p
