peer agreement (net): +1final breakdown / general settlement of accounts Explanation: Like BD Finch said, you have two separate terms here. I have a somewhat different suggestion: Decompte final: final breakdown (see IATE and the following two sites (bilingual) http://www.advisers-partners.com/FR/conseils-revenus.asp http://www.advisers-partners.com/EN/conseils-revenus.asp Décompte général: general settlement of accounts, general statement of accounts, general accounting (I think I prefer the first in this case) http://www.treaty-accord.gc.ca/ViewTreaty.asp?Language=1&Tre... http://www.websters-dictionary-online.org/translation/French... Also Terminum Hope this helps... |
