5 Revenue Earning
These figures refer to gross revenue – not net profit. They reflect the additional revenue generated by BBC World Service Broadcasting from sources other than the FCO Grant in Aid. They also include income generated by the BBC World Service Trust, a charitable company associated with the BBC World Service which was established during 1999/00.

The BBC World Service figure includes turnover from the BBC World Service shop of £0.6 million (1999/00 £0.5 million). The shop is now operated by another BBC division and therefore this income does not appear in the World Service financial statements.
 
These figures exclude any quantification of benefits in kind, for example gaining rebroadcasting agreements with local partners around the world, which increase the BBC World Service's audience reach at no additional cost.
