Scheduling & booking
How the split is calculated
The exact math behind every family's share.
Carve turns "ice cost + your fee + who's on the ice" into an exact per-family charge. All money is exact to the cent; remainders are distributed so shares always sum to the total.
The rules
- Ice divides across billable skaters — or by capacity if you chose I cover empty seats as your empty-seat rule.
- Coach fee:
- Per skater → each skater carries the fee.
- Flat → the fee splits evenly across the group.
- Siblings (same family) share one ice portion but each carry a fee, combined into a single family charge.
- Absent / late cancel — mark a skater Absent and the split recomputes across who remains. Your empty-seat rule decides who absorbs the gap. Already-paid families are never re-billed.
Empty-seat rule, side by side
| Rule | Who pays for empty seats | You get |
|---|---|---|
| Split among present | The skaters who showed up | Always made whole; present families pay a bit more when seats are empty |
| I cover empty seats | You (the coach) | Present families pay a fixed per-capacity share; predictable for parents |
Worked example
$250 ice, $60/skater fee, 4 unrelated skaters, split among present:
Ice per family = $250 / 4 = $62.50
Fee per family = $60.00
Family share = $122.50
If one is marked Absent (and you split among present), the remaining 3 each absorb more ice: $250 / 3 = $83.33 ice + $60 fee = $143.33. Already-paid families keep their original $122.50.
