Understanding Route Evaluation Data

I am trying to interpret the data provided by Aircraft Type Evaluation feature for a specific route. In the attached screenshot, I have selected an Embraer 175 LR (enhanced) aircraft and specified the seat types for Economy and Business class cabins. The route I am looking at is Salt Lake City (SLC) to Portland, OR, US (PDX). I am not sure what the numbers and percentages indicate in the 50%, 60%, 70% columns to the right side. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

That's a rough estimate of the profit you can expect at the specific load of the flight.

So at 50% your aircraft would be half empty, yet you still make a profit.

Thanks for your reply, much appreciated.

For the benefit of others, if I am looking at data in the 50% column and see "3,071 (28%)" that says the estimated profit for the route at 50% load is 3,071. What is the percentage? Is that margin?

Exactly.
