I'm not sure if entradas means capital intake, in concext of pricing fixing. Here goes the text:
"Maximización de las entradas. La elección del precio debe ser el adecuado para que las ventas sean lo más altas posibles."
My try:
"Maximization of capital intake. The price fixed should be sufficient to make the highest sales."
"Maximización de las entradas. La elección del precio debe ser el adecuado para que las ventas sean lo más altas posibles."
My try:
"Maximization of capital intake. The price fixed should be sufficient to make the highest sales."

Maximizing revenue
"Entradas" means the same as "ingresos", and I think the meaning here is sales revenue. In context, revenue alone is enough.

I didn't mention that although "Maximization of" is accurate, it's often more natural (in my opinion) to use a gerund in English where Spanish uses nouns like this.

Note from asker:
| Thanks for clarifying the meaning "entradas". You are right, it is more natural to the gerund form in English than the noun form. |
