Allowance Split Calculator

Split a small budget into save, give and spend amounts using percentages.

Simple money practice

This is useful for teaching percentages with real decisions. For larger goals, use the Savings Goal Calculator.

How the split works

The calculator applies saving and giving percentages first, then leaves the rest as spending money. It turns one amount into three simple buckets.

Example

With 10 allowance, saving 40% puts 4 into savings. Giving 10% puts 1 aside, leaving 5 to spend.

Common mistake

Percentages should not add to more than 100. If they do, there is no spending money left and the plan needs changing.
