Spanish term or phrase: bases de cálculo
En un documento sobre los beneficios estimados de una empresa (no escrito por la empresa) donde no ha sido posible acceder a las cifras exactas debido a una falta de transparencia en la industria, se ha usado cierta información y algunas cifras para llegar a calcular los ingresos de la empresa. Al final del documento, explican cómo lo han hecho, y cuales han sido sus "bases de cálculo para obtener las estimaciones de los beneficios obtenidos por XYZ."

Thanks in advance for your suggestions!

charge numbers


Explanation:
An intermediate variable used to calculate currency pool interest, it is determined by revaluing each day's current dollar-equivalent balance to the present using the product of the duality revaluation factors between that day and the present, with the sum of these daily revalued balances representing the charge number.

Termium also has "base de cálculo de la tasa de interés" for this.

Notes to answerer
Asker: Thank you very much--I was strongly tempted to use this, but it looks like "basis for calculation" is more commonly employed.
