Income, refers to consumption opportunity gained by an entity within a specified time frame, which is generally expressed in monetary terms. For firms, income generally refers to net-profit: what remains of revenue after expenses have been subtracted. In the field of public economics, it may refer to the accumulation of both monetary and non-montary consumption ability, the former being used as a proxy for total income.
