revenue
Money coming in
Revenue is money received, especially from business activities or taxation.
A company's revenue is its total income before expenses are deducted—distinct from profit, which is what remains after costs.
Government revenue comes primarily from taxes.
The word often appears in compounds: revenue stream, tax revenue, annual revenue.
