Proceeds is synonymous with both profits and revenue so using this word is confusing, and even misleading.
Currently: "100% of the proceeds will be donated to fund medical care for patients on Watsi."
Suggest: "$25 will be donated to fund medical care for patients on Watsi."
- chaseadam17 13y agoGood catch. Changed to "net proceeds."
- judk 13y agohttp://www.investopedia.com/terms/n/netproceeds.asp http://www.investopedia.com/terms/n/netproceeds.asp That's not what the term means, and musise of poisons the well for all honest correct-speaking charities and their beneficiaries. Just say "$25" or "50% of proceeds", and don't mislead customers. Edi: looks like you already changed it to "$25". That's refreshing in its direct honesty. Thank you for doing the right thing.
