Sources of Revenue and ExpenditurePatternsTwo important measures of the size of non-profit sector are revenueand operating expenditures. However, because of lack of sufficientdata in these two areas, people have often raised questions aboutwhether the sector is sustainable. This section provides insights on therevenue structure and expenditure patterns of the non-profit sector.The findings show that external sources of funding are not significantin terms of total revenue for the sector, apart from NGOs which relyalmost exclusively on external sources. Fees and charges are muchmore significant as a source of revenue to most NPOs.REVENUEFees are the dominant revenueThe findings show that about 81 percent of the cash revenue of NPOscomes from fees such as property income and membership fees. 14percent comes from all sources of private philanthropy, including individuals,foundations, corporations, and foreign donors.
