The term "rate" is misused
Description
(Apologies and excuse this issue if my business terminology is wrong)
The term "rates" would typically refer to the price charged per unit of time. When I first encountered this, my assumption was that
revenue
would calculate the revenue based onhours of an event * rate
. (e.g if an event is 3 hours, and the rate is $10, then I expected the revenue to be 3 * 10 = $30).Instead,
revenue
seems to treatrate
as the total cost of an event.

[This is the team's response to the above 'original' bug]
The rates of an event is not only limited to just per unit time. It can also be used as the amount of money charged for working for the particular event. For example, a freelancer can charge $500 for a photoshoot event which may span across varying amount of hours and days. Our interpretation of the rates is simply how much a freelancer can earn by taking up this event which is usually the case as freelancers ourselves.

Reason for disagreement: [replace this with your explanation]
Could be confusing to a user if the rate unit is not specified. Different negotiations have different rates, maybe all the rates are to be converted to per hour dollar.
