So I was curious about how much more money exactly I was getting from my multiplier and did that thing where you check the Gulp N Go by itself... I got a payout of $223. But my multiplier shows 122.65%...Do they not understand math at EA or am I not understanding what it's supposed to mean?

Rounding? Payout is 100, 223-100 = 123 Multiplier of 122.65 rounds up to 123

Standard payout for the Gulp N Blow is a $100. Multiply that by a 122.65% and you get $223 rounded off. ;)

Ok, I just did the Gulp N Blow "thing".I got $413 from it. My multiplier is 312.35% So I guess it rounded up?!

If you want a more accurate number build a KEM, take your experience before and after and divide the difference by 2000.

hidden SH bonus only affects XP, not cash.

The bonus multiplier don't include the original payout - the original (100%) base payout that you're getting even without any bonus multiplier.

A friend shared this with me a few months ago (his multiplier method)...

Here's how I figure out my total multiplier for everything including bonus, SH buildings and XP Collider:

note current XP
buy a decoration that costs a round number (a tree for 100, for example, which has payout of 10 XP before any multipliers)
note XP after purchase

So, if my 10 XP tree earns me 560 XP, my total multiplier is 56x. You can get more decimals by buying something that costs 1,000 or 10,000.

The trouble with that approach is that the smaller the number the less accurate the calculate result. I use a KEM
