Default Re: Income and population mechanics

income modifiers are definitely multiplicative.

-12% is actually multiply by .88, etc...

Multiplication is communicative and distributive, so there's no need to multiply by some first and then others as Elmokki does.

(x*.95*.95)*1.05*1.05 = x*.95*.95*1.05*1.05

So long as given modifiers multiply without flooring occuring inbetween, you can do all the multiplication operations at once.
