Owner statements in VRTrust include a top-level summary that provides a clear breakdown of your financial position for a given period. This summary helps you quickly understand how the final payout amount is calculated.
Where to Find the Statement Summary
To view the statement summary:
Go to Statements from the Owner Portal
Open an Owner Statement
Locate the summary box in the right-hand corner
How the Statement Summary Works
The summary box walks through each step of your payout calculation:
1. Balance Start
The Balance Start represents the beginning balance for the statement period.
It reflects the ending balance from the previous month’s statement
If this is the first month of ownership, it will reflect any opening balances
If there is no prior balance, this value will be zero
Note: A tooltip will indicate when the Balance Start value originated from listing opening balances settings.
2. Payouts
This line shows any payouts made to you during the current statement period. (For example, if you received a payout for January during the month of February, it would appear here.)
If this value is zero, it means no payouts were issued during the month
3. Balance Forward
Balance Forward = Balance Start – Payouts
This represents the remaining balance carried into the current period after any payouts.
4. Net Revenue and Expenses
Net Revenue includes all income generated during the period
Expenses include all costs incurring in the statement period
5. Balance End
Balance End = Balance Forward + Net Revenue – Expenses
This is your balance before any reserves are applied.
6. Reserves (if applicable)
The Reserve amount is subtracted from the Balance End
This helps ensure funds are retained for future expenses or obligations
7. Available Balance
The Available Balance is the final payable amount.
This reflects the Balance End after reserves are deducted
