upon receiving the return


Explanation:
I´m pretty sure this is one of those documents in Spanish where the word "retorno" is being misued for "rédito". The writer is using "retorno sobre la inversión" instead of the "rédito sobre la inversión", a phrase which I feel is more correct.

rédito. (Del lat. redĭtus).
m. Renta, utilidad o beneficio renovable que rinde un capital.

Option 2:

The monies paid or payable from said sales or services shall be accounted for during the reimbursement period, when the return on investment is received.


Example sentence(s):
  • The monies paid or payable from said sales or services shall be accounted for upon receiving the return (on investment) during the reimbursement period.

agree  Ruth Ramsey: If this is the case, then I guess it could also be "interest".

  -> Dunno Ruth, your are quite correct, sometimes a return on an investment comes as interest, sometimes not. Real estate buying and selling comes to mind. I buy a house, flip it and make a profit on my investment. That's return on an investment too.
