Manchester United have reported record annual revenue of £433.2million and profits of £23.8m for the financial year 2013-2014.The club's
sponsorship revenue increased by 49 per cent and commercial revenue soared nearly a quarter to £189.3m.But it cost the club
£5.2m to sack manager David Moyes and his coaching staff and
projections show their revenue is expected to fall by 10 per cent to between £385m-
£395m in the current financial year because of their failure to qualify for the Champions League.
United's
wage bill rose 19 per cent to £214.8m, an increase of £34.3m, 'primarily due to the impact of player acquisitions and renegotiated player contracts', according to the annual report.
This is the first time United's wage bill has broken the £200m barrier and they are only the second club after Man City to exceed it.
This is
before the summer acquisitions of Angel di Maria, Radamel Falcao, Marco Rojo, Daley Blind, Luke Shaw and Ander Herrera
have their impact.The figures also reveal United's sponsorship income increased by 49 per cent last year with a number of new deals coming on stream.
Executive vice-chairman Ed Woodward said: 'We are very proud of the results achieved in fiscal year 2014
as we once again generated record revenues driven by our commercial and broadcasting businesses which delivered impressive year-over-year growth.
'We also recently announced a record-breaking deal with Adidas and very much look forward to launching this partnership next summer.'With Louis van Gaal at the helm as manager, and the recent signing of some of the world's leading players to further strengthen our squad,
we are very excited about the future and believe it's the start of a new chaper in the club's history.
'Louis' footballing philosophy fits very well with Manchester United and he has an impressive track record of success throughout his career, winning league titles with every club he has managed.'
Woodward added that despite United's summer spending spree he expects the wage bill drop to due to the exits of high earns Patrice Evra, Rio Ferdinand Nemanja Vidic.
United finished seventh in the Barclays Premier League last season, their lowest finish in the post-1992 era, and failed to make the Champions League for the first time since 1995.
It led to the dismissal of Moyes and the appointment of Louis van Gaal over the summer.
United have spent in the region of £150m over the summer on Di Maria, Herrera, Shaw, Rojo, Blind and Falcao as they bid to reassert their dominance in the top flight.
The club also concluded the largest kit sponsorship deal in history with Adidas, worth £750m over a 10-year period.

曼聯上季在莫耶斯帶領下,成績一落千丈,無法贏得英超之餘,更加前四不保,未能參予今屆歐聯賽事。
不過,球隊戰績欠佳,並沒有影響他們的營運,甚至在營業額上更上一層樓。
雖然曼聯今晚才公佈年度財政報告,但英國傳媒已率先披露,紅魔上季收入逾4.3億鎊(約54億港元),
是球會歷史新高,縱然在純利方面只得2,380萬鎊收入,但由於球會多筆一次性稅金支付,
都放在這個年度上,還有賠償莫耶斯及其教練團隊的開支,以及球員普遍薪金上漲,故使純利數字看來並不太高。
曼聯今次獲得破紀錄的營業收入,主要來自商業,除了巨額贊助費外,銷售各類產品也達到500萬件,其中波衫便多達200萬件,為球會帶來一筆可觀收入。
