Britain's Queen Elizabeth II is set to receive £82.2 million in two year's time, an 8.1% increase from 2016, royal accounts published Tuesday and analysis by the United Kingdom's Financial Times shows.英国的伊丽莎白二世女王，即将在两年的时间内获得一笔8220万英镑的巨款（约合人民币7亿人民币），这一数字比2016年高了8.1%，这一王室账目是在周二有英国的《金融时报》发表并分析的。
The 91-year-old Queen, the world's longest-reigning monarch, received £42.8 million ($54.6 million) last year, meaning she will receive nearly double her previous income come 2019.这位91岁的女王（全球在位时间最长点的君主）去年拿到了4280万英镑的钱（约合人民币2亿7千万），这意味着她在2019年将获得的收入几乎是之前的2倍。
The Crown Estate, an independent trust which runs the U.K. monarchy’s estate, including Buckingham Palace and property in London's West End, revealed that it made £328.8 million ($418.6 million) in profit in the year ending in March 2017.王冠不动产，是一家运营着英国王室的不动产的独立信托基金。这些地产包括白金汉宫以及伦敦西区的一些房产。该基金会透露道：截至2017年3月，他们上一财年已经赚到了3亿2880万英镑的利润（约合人民币20亿）。
The Royal Family will receive 25% (up from 15%) of the profit, known as the sovereign grant. 王室家族将会得到这笔利润的25%（原本是15%），这笔钱被称作君主补助金。
The grant, which is based on the profits of two years before, was increased in order to pay for extensive renovations to Buckingham Palace as part of a refurbishment program that will last 10 years. The work is expected to cost £369 million, or $471 million.这笔款项的每次的金额，是根据前两年的利润而定的；它这次被提高，是为了支付白金汉宫马上要进行的一次为期10年的翻新。这项工程预计会耗费3亿6900万英镑，或4亿7100万英镑。
The Queen's treasurer — known as Keeper of the Privy Purse — told reporters Thursday that the British monarchy is "value for money" and last year equated to less than one pound per person per year in the U.K.女王的财务主管（又被称为“女王私用经费的保管者”）周四告诉记者：英国王室是“物有所值”的，去年英国花在他们身上的钱分摊到每个英国人身上还不到每年1英镑。
