What does INCOME mean in Scrabble?
noun
The money a person, household or business receives over a period, such as wages, rent or profit.
Income is the flow of money that comes in, whether as pay from a job, interest on savings, rent from a tenant or profit from trade. It is measured over a stretch of time, which is why people speak of a monthly or annual income. Governments base taxes and benefits on it, and a household budget starts from it. The word is the mirror image of expenditure, the money that goes out.
