[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How would you split this? 5 bedroom, 10 person house- adults and older kids (no babies).

Group 1 (2 adults, 2 teens)
Group 2 (2 adults, 1 kid)
Group 3 (1 adult, 1 teen)
Group 4 (1 adult)

In our family, all the adults (single or couples) would get their own rooms and the kids would bunk together in 1 room.  So adult couples of Groups 1 & 2 get their own rooms, single adults of Groups 3 & 4 each get their own rooms, and the kids are in the 5th room.  The kids may end up being in the biggest room if it has more beds or space.[/quote]

Posted before I read all the responses.  I see you want a cost allocation.  We would split the cost by 10 (so equal cost per person, no discount for kids or couples to be fair to the single person), with the rooms allocated as above.  Kids get the short end of the stick.  Oh well, too bad, so sad.  I'm the married mom of a lot of kids btw so in this situation we would end up paying more than half of the overall cost.[/quote]

This is us.  Adults get their own rooms either as singles or couples.  Kids are lodged together.  We pay per body, unless the body is under the age of 2 and would need to sleep in a crib in the parental room anyway.[/quote]
