EN: margin
This is a direct English loanword. It's the space on the side of your notebook where your teacher writes "See me!" or "Good work!". In business, it's the difference between your puhunan and your benta. "Maliit lang ang margin ko diyan," says every vendor at Greenhills. It's your buffer, your extra space, your profit.
From English "margin".
Used in both its literal (stationery) and figurative (business, finance) English senses. The Tagalog word 'marhen' is the Filipinized spelling.
