When is a Malmquist Calculation Used?
In this video, divorce attorney Rock Rocheleau explains when a Malmquist calculation is used. The Malmquist calculation was derived from a case where one party owned a property prior to the marriage but during the marriage used income (which is community property) to pay the mortgage on the property. The judge ruled that a portion of the equity in the home should be considered community property. The Malmquist calculation would be used in this set of circumstances.
