Usage Note
rentable means financially viable or generating a return, equivalent to 'profitable' or 'worth the investment'. It comes from rente (income, rent). The noun is rentabilité (profitability). Learners should note that rentable does not mean 'rentable' (available to rent); that sense is expressed by à louer.
