income和proceeds都有“收益”的含义,但是二者区别很大,英文释义:
(前者)The financial gain (earned or unearned) accruing over a given period of time;
例: low-income families 低收入家庭
(后者)The proceeds of an event or activity are the money that has been obtained from it. (某事件或活动带来的) 收入
例:The proceeds of the concert went to charity.音乐会的收入给了慈善机构。
以下通过两组例句加以说明:
1
income是表示“收入”的最普通词汇,包括工作、生意和投资,特指定期的收入,比较固定。如:工资收入wage income;income tax所得税;income gap收入差距
例句一:

我们在管理国际性股票、地区性股票以及专业性固定收益和多资产投资产品方面拥有极高的声誉。
例句二:

注:income sheet损益表
2
proceeds一般指交易所得,偏短期。如处置金融资产的收入额,一般用proceeds from disposal of financial assets不用revenue 或者income。

注:投资项目获得的收益,通常出现在有限合伙协议中,多用proceeds
