can you show me how the data would look like

Overview

This project requires you to use the Minnesota Child Support Calculator. You will be producing two Child Support Guideline Worksheets. Recall that the online calculator does not permit you to save your work, so you will need to print each worksheet once you are satisfied that you have produced the correct result.

Points

You may earn a total of 20 points - 10 for each worksheet, for the following items on each worksheet.

1e for Tim

3: Combined Parenting Income for Determining Child Support (PICS)

4: One point each for each parent's PICS percentage

5: Combined Basic Child Support Obligation

7: Basic Child Support Obligation After Parenting Expense Adjustment

8: Child Care Support Obligation

9c: Peggy's contribution to Health Care Coverage

9f: Contribution to Dental Coverage

14: One-half point each for each parent's Total Child Support Obligation. And just so we understand, Tim's net support payable to Peggy isn't shown on the calculator. Rather, you need to subtract Peggy's contributions on Line 14 from Tim's obligation on Line 14. For example, if Tim's Line 14 obligation is $250 and Peggy's reimbursement to Tim is $50, Tim's net payable to Peggy would be $200 ($250 minus $50).

Facts

We represent Tim in his dissolution action from his current wife Peggy. They have been married for 10 years and have two joint children, ages 4 and 6, both of whom are in day care. Neither parent or child receives any county benefits such as GA, SSI, MFIP, or AFDC. Neither parent is considered to have any additional potential income. Nor is any joint child receiving any Social Security or VA benefits. They agree that the court will order equal parenting time.

Scenario 1 - Here's how the story began...

	Tim	Peggy
Monthly income	$8,000.00	$5,000.00
Monthly childcare cost		750.00
Spousal maintenance paid or received	0.00	0.00
Nonjoint child(ren)	None	None
Monthly health care coverage for joint children	200.00	0.00
Monthly dental coverage for joint children	25.00

So please submit your Child Support Guidelines Worksheet.

Scenario 2:

It's three weeks later. I am surprised to learn that Tim hasn't been completely honest with us, or indeed, even with Peggy. Peggy received a call from Tim's former girlfriend Elphaba who gave birth to Tim and Elphaba's baby in Fargo three years ago. Until receiving the phone call Peggy know nothing about either Elphaba or the baby. After the call, Peggy learned that the Cass County District Court in Fargo ordered Tim to pay Elphaba $500 monthly child support. Peggy is stunned! So, use the same data as in Scenario 1, but add the newly discovered fact that Tim has been ordered to pay nonjoint child support of $500 to his former girlfriend.

And...for two extra points (but only if you wish to receive them), explain to me the impact on Peggy's child support (i.e., the difference between Scenario 1 and 2) now that we know about the Cass County order.
