From the listing
6 sheets.
- Start here: 5 steps with a link to every sheet
- Settings: both names, currency, each take home pay, and how you split joint costs: 50/50 or by income (the one who earns more pays a bigger share)
- Budget: up to 40 categories, each with a monthly plan: joint, and personal for each of you; group Needs, Wants or Savings
- Transactions: up to 800 payments with Paid by and For (Joint or one of you); a refund is a minus amount
- Monthly: pick a month: plan against actual for every category, joint and personal; 50/30/20 against both take home pays; Settle up: who owes whom
- Dashboard: the year month by month (joint costs, who paid them, balance), the balance for the year, a chart and a Data check
From the listing
How it works.
- You type in Budget once and in Transactions as you go. Everything else is calculated.
- Settle up counts your share of the joint costs, what each of you paid for them, and what one of you paid for the other.
- Gray cells are calculated and locked without a password, so nothing breaks by accident. One click (Review, Unprotect Sheet) unlocks them.
- Data check finds payments without a date, amount or category, a missing Paid by or For, dates outside the year and more. It says All good or tells you what to fix.
- Any currency: type your symbol in Settings.

How we test it.
Before release the file is recalculated in Microsoft Excel (6,151 formulas, no errors), and every calculated number is compared with a separate calculation written from scratch, in the example file, the empty file and 6 generated years with both split rules and deliberate mistakes. The pictures in this listing are drawn from the example file.
