About finalized earnings

Finalized earnings are not transferred to AdSense until about halfway through the following month (i.e. earnings accrued in June will be transferred to AdSense in mid-July).

Finalized YouTube earnings for the previous month are added to your AdSense account balance between the 10th and 14th of the month and paid out that month if your total balance has reached the payment threshold and if you have no payment holds. Learn more about AdSense payments in the AdSense Help Center.

Estimated vs. finalized earnings

Estimated revenue in YouTube Analytics may differ from finalized payments due to final adjustments and is modified at the end of the month to match. Estimated revenue does not include partner-sold or partner-served advertising revenue (you can contact your partner manager if you have questions).

Metrics to know

Average view duration	Estimated average minutes watched per view for the selected video and date range.

Transactions	Number of transactions from paid content or Super Chat for the selected date range and region.

Question : 1

What is the difference between YouTube ad revenue and estimated revenue in analytics section of YouTube?

 "Your Estimated Revenue" is the estimated net revenue from ads on your videos. This will be close to what will actually be added to your AdSense account once a month after some adjustments.

"YouTube AdRevenue" is gross revenue. It will include gross revenue from all Google sold advertising and services like Double-click. It is gross revenue, which means that all these various parties' cuts haven't been taken out. This is completely different from "Your Estimated Revenue" which is only your small part of that gross.

Question : 2 Should you only consider YOUR ESTIMATED REVENUE????

In the Analytics section of your YouTube channel you see Revenue Reports which has 2 sub categories.

1) Revenue
2) Ad rates

Under Revenue you see "your Estimated revenue"
and under Ad rates you see "YouTube ad revenue"

Because that is what you should be getting. Just note that it says "estimated", it could differ slightly with what you would really get. But its only slightly.
Now, "YouTube ad revenue" is the total amount your channel gets before YouTube takes their cut.
