What tells you how much money you made?

Confusing Confusing Confusing. Everybody is giving different answers. Is it the Ad performance, or gross revenue? Is it the Total estimated Earnings? lol does anybody know?
 
Actually that's incorrect, estimated earnings tell you the closest to what is payed out to the network you are under. Because ad performance is before youtube's obscure 45% cut.

Hope it helped!

Not really, I got paid the exact amount that showed up on my Ad Performance. I'm directly with YouTube.

Yeah, but with a network you would benifit more because they roll higher paying ads. Ad performance may show you directly with youtube, but estimated earnings is with your network ads. However ad performance is shown higher because youtube does take a cut of that even when your with them directly.

Hope it helped

Under "Ad Performance" it shows "Gross Revenue" this is before anyone's cut (including Google's).

To answer the original thread question its simple, just do Total Estimated Earnings x by the % split your network is giving you (this would be 100% if you are not with a network).

For example, Under Ad performance it shows you have made a gross revenue of $10, first you need to x this by 0.55 to take out google's cut which leaves $5.50(total estimated earnings), then you need to x it by the % split your network is giving you, so for example you are on a 50% revenue split, to work out your earnings you'd need to do $5.50 x 0.5 = $2.75. Simply take this example and change it to suit the deal you are on.
