How This Calculator Works

Calculation methodology and assumptions

The proxy allocates a generic combined-gross-income budget and entered costs by each parent’s income share. Nights select a modeled payer, but do not select a North Carolina worksheet or calculate its custody adjustments. This tool does not implement the state guideline; none is an official guideline amount.

Key State Information

Income Shares guideline context: North Carolina Child Support Services links separate worksheets for primary, joint or shared, and split custody. It identifies income, day-care costs, medical insurance and children’s living arrangements as significant variables. The site’s proxy does not choose or complete those worksheets.

Example Calculation

Worksheets and a planning comparison

Two children, annual incomes of $68,000 and $42,000, 220 nights with Parent 1, $6,000 care and $3,000 insurance yield $1,056.36 monthly for Parent 2 under the proxy.

Result: For one child, $55,000 and $35,000 income, 150 nights, $3,000 care and $1,800 insurance, Parent 1’s modeled amount is $1,023.61. Neither scenario completes Worksheet A, B or C.
