How the number of children changes the amount in Nevada

With Parent A earning $60,000 and Parent B $40,000, the guideline amount for 5 children is $1,500 a month, about 1.88 times the $800 for one child. Support rises with each child, but by less than the first child's amount, because the guidelines reflect how households share costs among children.

Nevada sets child support as a percentage of the paying parent’s gross monthly income, in three tiers. For one child it is 16% of the first $6,000, 8% of the part up to $10,000 and 4% of the rest; for two children 22%, 11% and 6%; for three 26%, 13% and 6%; for four 28%, 14% and 7%. Each further child adds 2%, 1% and 0.5%.
