LabelChild M baseline scenario 4th income variation :Q702
Question text (Family: - 8 year old boy - Parents married for 10 years, now divorced - Boy lives mostly with mother, sees father twice in week and stays overnight once at the weekend) Now, in the next three questions, the (father's/mother's/mother's new husband's) income is ( ) per month after tax. Again, in each question, I'm just going to change the income of the (mother/father/mother's new husband). The ((mother/new husband)'s/fathers) income is £(1,500/2,000) per month after tax. Again, in each question, I'm just going to change the income of the (father/(mother/new husband)). Now what if the father's income is (£1,000/£3,000/£2,000/£2,000/£1,000/£3,000/£2,000/£2,000) per month and the (mother's/new husband's) is (£1,500/£1,500/£900/£2,200/£2,000/£2,000/£1,000/£3,000) per month. (How much child maintenance do you think (the father should be required/it is fair to expect the father) to pay the mother each month?)
