正确说法

• 法院量刑时常以犯罪数额为核心参考，并据数额大小确定法定刑幅度。(When sentencing, courts often use the criminal amount as the core reference and set the statutory penalty range according to its size.)
• 慈善机构应披露捐款数额、来源和用途；数额与支出明显不符而无解释时，应启动独立审计。(Charitable institutions should disclose donation amounts, sources, and uses; if the amount clearly does not match spending and no explanation is given, an independent audit should be launched.)

错误说法

• 数额 for quantities of non-monetary or non-countable items — 数额 specifically refers to numerical amounts in financial, legal, or administrative contexts such as sums of money and approved quotas; for general quantities or volumes use 数量 (quantity), 总量 (total volume), or 规模 (scale) instead
