Why has my money dried up?

This is a standalone Random generator game, and suddenly I'm getting no prestige point income any more!
I own 3 green objectives (2 circled, the 3rd is out of frame) plus some cities, all of which should be should be generating a good load of prestige pts per turn, plus 157 per turn but I'm not getting anything (sniffle).
Maths was never my strong point so can anybody explain it?
For the record its about turn 20 of a "No turn limit" game, and I see the "Bonus" readout (whatever that is) has dropped to '0', could that have something to do with it?

Even though with turn limit off you can play indefinitely, prestige per turn stops when you exceed scenario's original turn limit. Without this, you could earn infinite prestige in a single mission, which does not make much sense, especially in campaign environment. But it looks like the UI does not do a good job showing this.

Thanks, that explains it..:)
It was a 'Small' size battle and the default length for smalls is 18 turns, so when I went beyond that time limit, the game cut off my funds.
In future I'll use the default length and will have the fun challenge of trying to win before time runs out..
