Ateret Paz CM 1:3:10:6 writes at length on this topic. He explains that the dispute between these opinions is whether there's a limit to the amount of lost profit one must incur just like there's a limit to actual losses one must incur. He sides with the opinion that there's no limit for a loss of profit which would exempt one from the mitzvah. One proof for this position is the Ritva, Ran, and Tosfot Harosh on Kiddushin 31b that a son isn't obligated to do kibbud av at his own expense and suffer a loss. Yet, he must be ready to loss a profit even if it is very significant. Rama YD 240:8 cites the Ran.</ins></ref></div></td></tr>
