Dynamic Equity Calculator

Ownership should reflect reality.

Ownership Split

Equal

Dynamic

How should cash and time be weighted?

Cash is after-tax, already-earned money with real opportunity cost. Because it carries more financial risk, it typically translates to more shares than sweat equity.

Equal

How shares are calculated:

• Cash × multiplier = shares

• Hours × hourly rate = shares

Example:

• $10,000 cash invested × 2 = 20,000 shares

• 100 hrs contributed × $100/hr = 10,000 shares

Adjust cash, hours, and rates below to see how contributions affect ownership.
