How to say "proceeds" in Japanese

• 売り上げうりあげJLPT N2approx.Common
  nounGeneral-purpose word for the amount taken in from sales; the everyday choice when 'proceeds' simply means what a sale or business brought in.
  今年ことしの売り上うりあげは倍増ばいぞうと見込みこんでいます。↗

  Sales should double this year.
• 収益しゅうえきJLPT N1approx.Common
  nounCovers proceeds in the sense of earnings, returns or revenue — money gained, not just the raw takings of a sale; suits financial and business discussion.
  その投資とうしは現在げんざい６％の収益しゅうえきを彼かれにもたらしている。↗

  The investment now yields him 6%.
• 売上金うりあげきんCommon
  nounSpecifically the money from a sale, matching 'proceeds (from a sale)'; natural when you mean the actual sum, e.g. money to be donated or handed over.
• 売上高うりあげだかCommon
  nounThe sales figure or amount sold, typically as a stated total; use it for 'proceeds' when you mean the accounting or reported sales amount rather than the cash itself.
• 収入しゅうにゅうJLPT N3approx.Common
  nounReally 'income' — money a person or entity receives. Although one gloss is 'proceeds', it is seldom the word you want for proceeds of a sale; it suggests ongoing earnings instead.
  収入しゅうにゅう以上いじょうの生活せいかつをするな。↗

  Do not live above your income.

For money from selling something use 「売り上げ」, 売上金, or 売上高; 収益 is broader earnings or returns; 収入 means income generally and is usually not the word for proceeds.
