Yeah, profit is a squishy term. The way you avoid paying corporate taxes is to not have any profit, which just means you've "invested" the money back into the business, which can pretty much mean anything including paying any amount to executives and high paid consultants.

As I've said (among most every economist), corporate taxes should probably be zero, or very near to it. No more wasted money seeking tax loopholes as there are no (corporate) taxes.
