Distribute resources fairly based on income levels and needs
A mathematical approach to equitable allocation
Add people and incomes to see distribution
See how different fairness adjustments affect the distribution
The formula distributes resources by:
For each person \(i\):
\[ \text{allocation}_i = \text{totalAmount} \times \frac{(1 - \frac{\text{income}_i}{\sum_{j=0}^{n-1}\text{income}_j})^{\text{fairness}}}{\sum_{k=0}^{n-1} (1 - \frac{\text{income}_k}{\sum_{j=0}^{n-1}\text{income}_j})^{\text{fairness}}} \]
Where:
This ensures the sum of all allocations equals the total amount, while giving more to those with lower incomes.
This calculator helps distribute resources equitably among people based on their income levels and other factors. It's useful for estate planning, family distributions, or any situation where need-based allocation is desired.
The mathematical approach ensures fairness by giving more to those who have less, with adjustable parameters to control how strongly income differences affect the distribution.
