The American Olympic Committee is doing well. The organization published its accounts for 2016 this week. They reveal an expenditure of around $257 million, but a much higher level of income, established at $336 million. A largely profitable Olympic year, therefore. A habit for the USOC. In terms of revenue, the two main items remain television rights ($137 million) and sponsorship ($121 million). According to USA Today, the expenses item shows a check for $10 million paid to the IOC, as part of the administrative expenses of the Rio 2016 Games.
