Estimated earnings/gross earnings playback/impression based???

[Appledevicehack]

Analytics in my opinion is way more confusing than Adsense. Estimated earnings/gross earnings. Ad performance show monetized views for Playback based, and impression based. For example 9000 playback based, and 11,000 impresson based. Each have a different CPM, but even at a 10 CPM for each. Would be 10/1000 views = $200 and estimated earnings are at 40% of 200. Ok Then split that ammounts with the partner, and hmmm looks like I made a mistake and should have stayed solo. Any thoughts anyone. ( these numbers don't depict my actual numbers as we are not to speak numbers)

I don't really understand how the monetization works anymore... when I was with adsense, it was click based. Now I'm not sure because some people say it's impression based.

Both.

@OP gross revenue is before YouTube's split and should be ignored. YouTube estimated earnings is accurate but it is obviously before your Networks revenue split (unless you're not with one) so remove their cut and see what you are left with.
