1. What Is Average Monthly Income?

Average Monthly Income (AMI) represents the monthly average of total yearly income. It is calculated by dividing the annual income by 12 months, providing a standardized measure for monthly income assessment and financial planning.

2. How Does The Calculator Work?

The calculator uses the AMI formula:

\[ AMI = \frac{\text{Annual Income}}{12} \]

Where:

\( AMI \) — Average Monthly Income (currency/month)
\( \text{Annual Income} \) — Total yearly income (currency/year)
\( 12 \) — Number of months in a year

Explanation: This simple division provides the monthly equivalent of annual income, useful for budgeting, loan applications, and financial analysis.
