D Prize Money Computations
The column headings represent the number of players in the division. (You may wish to ignore these header numbers if you have already determined how many prize positions you want.) Each column shows the percent breakdown for a given number of prize positions. For example, if there are four prize positions and a $200 prize fund, 1st place gets $200 x 0.400 = $80, 2nd place gets $200 x 0.267 = $53.40, etc. using the column under the 9-11 header. It is suggested to round to the nearest dollar or the nearest five dollars to avoid dealing with change. Its also possible that the bottom prize positions may not compute optimally by this formula. If so, feel free to adjust the bottom prize positions to more desirable numbers such as ...$30, $25, $20, depending on what your bottom prize typically is. Remember that players tied on tournament points will split the total money available for all the tied positions.
