Calculating Annual Wealth

[Pontifex Maximus]

Everyone is responsible for manually calculating their own annual wealth in their home thread. These calculations will be subject to random audits. Should there be a discrepancy everyone gets one slap on the wrist, but if miscalculations persist more drastic means of 'equalizing' may be taken.

How to calculate Farm income:

Farm income is based on a percentage of the annual 2,500 denarii income for all members of the Senatorial class. Each slave working on any estate contributes .5%. This is guaranteed income, unless a farming disaster occurs. When you choose to take additional risk, farming crops that are known to fail on occasion, your farm product will be worth more and therefore add more to your bottom line. If you choose to farm any risk crop (anything other than grain) ask for a roll in moderator actions.

Example:

If I have two small farms with 40 slaves, my annual income increases from 2,500 to 3,000:

.5% of 2,500 is 12.5. So each slave contributes 12.5 denarii annually. 40 x 25 is 500.
