outlay
Sum paid out
Outlay is money spent on something, especially a significant or initial expenditure: The startup required a substantial cash outlay.
The word emphasizes money going out rather than coming back—the spending side of an investment.
As a verb, to outlay is to spend or expend funds, though this use is less common than the noun.
