# Itemized bill splitter

Canonical interactive tool: https://taskpencil.com/tools/itemized-bill-splitter/

Assign individual and shared restaurant items and divide tax and tip into exact per-person totals.

## Instructions

1. Enter your values in the labeled fields. Add or remove entries as needed.

2. Results update automatically as inputs change. Review the result and assumptions.

3. Copy or print your result.

## Formula and example

Each item is allocated equally to its assigned people; blank assignment means everyone. Tax and tip are allocated equally or in proportion to item totals. Two 15.00 meals with 3.00 tax and 6.00 tip total 39.00, or 19.50 each.

## Limits

Use unique names, one per line; item assignments use comma-separated names, so avoid commas in names. Enter tax and tip as amounts in the same currency, not percentages. Integer-cent allocation preserves the exact bill total; tied leftover cents follow listed order. A positive item subtotal is needed when tax or tip is nonzero. All processing is local; inputs are not stored or transmitted.
