There's more to this than the above simple 'throw out an answer' scenario.


There'd be an idea that even though the player is offline, the business can still be operating, so it wouldn't as much be based on the player pool, it would be more on a business loop, taking from their till and paying the bank.

You could use the above throw-out (Even though I wouldn't trust the formula at all), and modify it to handle the businesses as the loop, and make the businesses payout in that time, to the bank.
