New method to pay rent
Say I have 5 people (A B C D E) in my room. The monthly rent is 1000 $. There would be no issues if they all stay for an entire month. But the real issue arise when people stay for a few days and then leave and then come back again.
Say (A-C) are staying all 30 days
D stayed for the first 15 days
E for the first 5 and then last 5 days.
What I usually do in these cases are split the rent like this
Feb rent (first 5 days) = (1000/30)5 for A B C D E
Feb rent (next 10 days) = (1000/30)10 for A B C D
Feb rent (next 10 days) = (1000/30)10 for A B C
Feb rent (last 5 days) = (1000/30)5 for A B C E
As you can see it is really difficult this way. I know it is unheard of and the number of ppl in a room remain constant. But trust me these do happen often
Thanks for the feedback! You should be able to do this with split by shares in the app – just add a share for each day each person will be in the apartment.
