[GNC] Fixed split to bill

[Peter Graham Eastwood]

Hi
I want to split a utility bill to a fixed percentage for each person. It occurs quarterly but I don’t necessarily need it to be a scheduled transaction, though it could be. I just want to enter the (variable) bill total and have it set up the split in the same way repeatable roughly each quarter.
In the Wiki I found a formula for splitting a phone bill in a SX:

| Phone | Assets:Checking               | <A> |     |
| Mike  | Expenses:Phone                |     | <B> |
| Bob   | Assets:Money Owed To Me:Bob   |     | <C> |
| Sally | Assets:Money Owed To Me:Sally |     | <D> |

Where:
<A> := base + sally_ld + bob_ld + mike_ld
<B> := base/3 + mike_ld
<C> := base/3 + bob_ld
<D> := base/3 + sally_ld

However, I’m a new gnucash user (though I have programmed computers) so I don’t know where/ how to start setting up and using a formula like this.
Can anyone help me get going?
Regards
Graham
