37.62.118    TOTAL INCOME AVAILABLE/PARENTAL SHARE

(1) The parents' incomes available for child support are combined to determine the total income available for child support. Each income is divided by the total. The resulting factor determines each parent's share of the primary child support allowance under ARM 37.62.121 and supplements under ARM 37.62.123.

(2) For any parent whose support obligation is determined according to the provisions of ARM 37.62.126(1) (a) and (1) (b) , the amount of the minimum contribution is substituted for that parent's total income available for child support for the purpose of determining each parent's share of the primary child support allowance and supplements.
