The math, in plain language

How this answer is built

The baseline is the lower of 80% of your average and your second-lowest entered month. This softens one unusually bad month without letting strong months inflate the plan.

Use the result as a planning estimate. Confirm tax, lending, legal or financial decisions with the relevant professional or official statement.
