What is Income?
'''Income''' is the [[money]] that someone gets for business activities. For individuals income usually means their [[wages]] or [[salary]] before any [[tax]] and other deductions have been made by their [[employer]]. Overall it is the amount you earn after all outstanding deductions have been made. '''Gross income''' is the income from all sources including wages or salary. For business, there is a difference between the US, where it most often means the amount of money that a company earns after paying for all its costs, and the world outside the U.S., where the term is usually [[profit]] or [[earnings]]. ==Related pages== * [[Per capita income]] * [[Household income in the United States]] * [[Income tax]] == Other websites == * [http://money.cnn.com/markets/IRC/warnings.html Markets & Stocks: Investor Research Center - Earnings Warnings] * http://web.worldbank.org/WBSITE/EXTERNAL/DATASTATISTICS/ * [http://www.cbsalary.com CBSalary—Careerbuilder's Free Salary Calculator] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070102000432/http://www.cbsalary.com/ |date=2007-01-02 }} * [http://www.rightline.net/calendar/index.html US Corporate Earnings Calendar] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190717080109/http://www.rightline.net/calendar/index.html |date=2019-07-17 }} [[Category:Income| ]] {{stub}}
