How should your total take home pay be divided amongst expenses?

Agrees with above. The first move is to put 10% into savings. Ideally rent/mortgage payment should be no more of 1/3 of your household income. So that would leave you with about 55% of your income. That should be used for food and bills and the like. After all that is taken care of, then feel free to use it how you wish.

There is usually a percentage of expenses that can be deducted for a home office. There are federal guidelines that have to be followed. The accounting method will also have some impact on the method used to determine what and how much can be used. it is far to vast of a question for a forum and you should seek guidance from a licensed tax attorney or CPA tax specialist.

Check with the company your work for.  Normally, it involves listing your expenses like hotel, meals, transportation and entertainment costs.

This all depends on who you are working for.\n\nThis sounds a lot like a household chore. If you are talking about your allowance then you should be more concerned with helping out and doing your part than worrying about 83 cents. My guess is your parents want you to help out around the house to learn the value of work.\n\nPersonally, if a child of mine counted every penny and insisted on 83 cents for unloading the dishwasher they would find themselves doing a lot of unpaid chores for quite a while.\n\nIf on the other hand, you are talking about pay for hire like a part time job, labor laws vary state by state. You should check with your labor department.

The financial planning spreadsheet that I use for my budget indicates that 24-42% of expenses is the target range for housing, which includes rent or mortgage & real estate taxes, plus utilities.  Expenses should be less than take home pay, otherwise you'll be working until you die in debt.  I suggest you take a look at the Motley Fool (fool.com) or some other on-line personal finance site.  It sounds like you are ready to start a budget and will need a lot of answers.\n\nBest of Luck.  E-mail me if you get stuck.

Doesn't have to be fancy. Start with your paycheck(s). Then estimate your daily/weekly expenses like groceries, parking, gas, bus tickets, coffee, etc. Now figure out what are your monthly expenses, like rent, car payment, and insurance. Divide those in half (not exactly right but close enough) and add to your expense list. Maybe you have other expenses that are less often, like some insurance. Set aside an amount each week so that you'll have enough when it's time ot pay. From there you need to see how good your guesses were, and compare how much you really spent to what you thought. Fine tune as you go.

Make a list separately of what you both want, enjoy, need - pay no attention to order or anything Else. Then get together and compare, here you can eliminate or even add to a single list you agree on. Then place them in order of importance, please no arguing - if it is important to you (or him) then it is - no matter what you (or he) thinks. Now we have a list, next place a time next to them. House - 3 years, vacation - 1 year etc. Then put dollar amounts next to them - house deposit needed $10,000 divide that by 36 (3yearsx12) you now have a monthly value. Once you have done this you will see that you have monthly values for the things you are trying to do. Then add up everything and get a monthly total. You'll either have enough to do it all or not enough to do it all. Then sit down again and work out what you can eliminate or reduce - going to the bar (or whatever) once every two months is cheaper than going every week(or night!). House deposit in 4 years instead of three etc - Once you can see what you can achieve, and you are both on board, then it is easy to do. This may take a few talks, so get coffee and cookies and sit in a nice and comfortable room. \nThe idea is to give your spouse something they want, and help them understand in order to get it, they need to save/cut back/stick to budget - whatever term works best - to get it. Where 'it' is something they (and you as a couple) agree is worth saving for.\nGood Luck!

If I hired you for the same job, I would pay you the cost of the food plus $4/hr for daytime hours and $1/hr for nighttime hours.  Plus reimbursement for gas and entertainment expenses.  So I would probably total it all at around $650.  Break it down and present it to your parents.  As long as they see it as reasonable, they should agree.  Good Luck!

Breakeven! I would think that you need to figure out your fixed expenses to operate this business and calculate your breakeven point to cover at least your expenses.  i.e how many baskets you need to sell a month/week/day to pay for the business expenses...

It will probably be a seperate bill. You should ask the landlord.

You have to include the household income of the parent you're living on right now. You can also check which one of them have you as a direct dependant on their tax return. Not both of them can have you there and the government will also use that information as a decision point.

i would recommend having seperate everythign except for maybe one checking account (like previous said)and house payment. becuase if for instance, one of you dies, if you are joint on things like cars and credit cards, the survivor gets left with the payment, and life insurance or not that is a pain

Estimate your income and your expenses. For your expenses, determine the things you NEED to pay (rent, utilities, food, etc.) and then budget what is left for other things (savings, entertainment, clothing, etc.).

Generally the equation is:\n\n1/4 of Fathers take home pay (net income)
