Frequently asked questions
Q.How do we split multiple items fairly?▾
Calculate each item separately. One person can keep certain items and the other keeps the rest, with a cash payment to balance the totals.
Q.What if we cannot agree on who keeps what?▾
Take turns picking items. The calculator tells you the value of each pick so you can keep the totals balanced.
Q.Should we count small items like dishes and towels?▾
It depends on the value. For low-cost items, it may not be worth calculating. Focus on the bigger purchases first.
Q.Can this calculator account for gifts?▾
Gifts are usually not considered shared assets. If one person received an item as a gift, it belongs to them and should not be included.
Q.What if one roommate caused damage to shared items?▾
Use the damaged condition option. The reduced value reflects the damage, and the person responsible may owe more to compensate.
