    Order of bonuses?

    Hi. I had to take a hiatus from working on the economy/science pump spreadsheet. I got a new job and just moved!! But now I am working on it again.

    My next question.

    What order are bonuses applied? Or are they added and then applied?

    Specifically: Banks give +%income and a set amount of gc/day, Alchemy gives +%income

    (the following example uses arbitrary numbers) Lets say:
    from banks I have 1000gc per day and +25% income per day
    from Alchemy I have +10% income.
    from peasant income I get 25,000gc/day

    Is it
    (25,000 + 1000) * 1.25 * 1.10
    (25,000 + 1000) * 1.35
    (25,000 * 1.25 * 1.10) + 1000

    etc,

    Anyone know off hand?

    Also, Thanks so much to everyone that has helped so far! Its been much easier with your assistance.

    A building that gives a flat rate bonus, like the bank gc, is added to the other sources making up the raw income (in the case of banks). All modifiers are multiplied with each other and the raw income. So the correct would be:

    (25,000 + 1000) * 1.25 * 1.10

    I'd be interested in having a look at your spreadsheet. Upload it on yousendit.com and send the link to me on PM here.
