How the calculation works

Adjusted income = base weekly income minus missed-shift income, with a minimum of zero. Non-rent costs include your base costs and extra spending. The balance subtracts those costs and your entered rent. To keep your reserve, that balance must be at least the reserve amount.

A reserve shortfall is different from being unable to pay rent. The model does not determine eligibility, late-payment consequences or real game transactions.
