A guide for the Treasury and what the numbers mean?

[Ronin]

Is there a guide for exactly what each figure represents. Are all the figures monthly? Are the taxes yearly or montly? Is a land tax of 0.10, 10% or is it 0.10 in actual currency? Maybe I'm just dumb but I can't get my head around it and because the changes don't take effect right away and I'm worrying about other things going on I can't keep track of the exact changes incurred. Anyone that could help it would be appreciated!

The numbers in the far left column, under the heading "this year", are the current income and expenses for the current year.

They are constantly updated and are of course only displayed for the months that you have reached in the current year.

If you want to see the totals from a complete year, i.e. 12 months, click on a line and look at the bars on the far right. Of course, this only works for past years that have already been completed.

- Treasury: The current amount of money that is in your city treasury
- Balance: The result of your income minus your expenses

- Income: The sum of all your income, which are listed below as follows:
- Housing rent: The sum of the income generated so far from renting out your houses
- Land tax: The sum of the income generated so far that has been paid by people who live in village houses with gardens
- Wealth tax: The sum of the income generated so far that has been paid by people who were above the wealth tax threshold
- Taverns tax: The sum of the income generated so far by people who run a tavern in your town
- Barber surgeries tax: The sum of the income generated so far by people who work as a barber in a barber surgery building
- Local sales: The sum of the income so far from sales at market stalls and stores (only within your city)
- Export: The sum of the income generated so far by selling goods to other cities (exports)
- Loans: The amount of loans received so far from the government

- Expenses: The totals of all your expenses, which are listed below as follows:
- Import: The amount of money you spent so far on importing goods from other cities
- Salary: The amount of money you spent so far on paying wages to your citizens, including managers wage, workers wage and laborers wage
- Messengers: The amount of money you spent so far on sending messengers to other cities
- Financial help: The amount of money you spent so far for pushing the "financial help" button at the households detail window
- Local purchases: The amount of money you spent so far for buying the garden produces from citizens.

The next column you can set the following (all numbers are per month):
- Village house rent: The monthly rent for the village houses and village houses with garden
- Apartment rent: The monthly rent for the rowhouse apartments
- Land tax: The land tax for the village houses with garden. This must be % as it varies from garden to garden and depends on it's size (e.g. for 0.10: size of garden*10 %) But I'm not 100 % sure of that and there is no way to check this.
- Wealth tax: The money people have to pay per month if they are above the wealth tax threshold
- Wealth tax threshold: The threshold from which wealth tax must be paid. It depends on the "wealth", which can be displayed in the household detail window.
- Taverns tax: The monthly tax people have to pay who run a tavern
- Barber surgeries tax: The monthly tax people have to pay who run a barber surgery
- Market products price: This determines how much % of the price your citizens have to pay when they buy something at your market stalls or stores. The individual prices of the goods are determined by the game itself. This only affects the local sales within your city, but not the prices, when you export to other cities.
- Basic monthly wage*: This is the wage you pay per month to all the workers, who are permanently employed at the businesses (hired by the "+" button).
- Managers wage*: This is the wage you pay per month to all the managers (e.g. mayor, trading post manager, farm manager, etc.). You can't set this wage directly, but it's always 150 % of the basic wage.
- Laborers wage*: This is the wage you pay to all the laborers. While the wage is per month, it is only paid for the time when your citizen actually works as a laborer. If they don't work they won't get paid.

*Note: All wages are based on 100% pay. For each individual business, in the hire options menu, you can individually set how much of that should be paid to their employees. This won't affect any other buildings.

- Purchase from citizen price: This determines how much % you pay, when citizens, who live in a village house with garden sell their produces to your granaries. The individual prices of the goods are determined by the game itself.
