Income Distribution in the One-Lender, Five-Borrower Model

In the economic model of one lender and five borrowers, income distribution is based on a shared proportion, 's', of each business's net income (I). For clarity, all incomes within this model are measured in units of I. The lender's total income amounts to 5s, which is the sum of the shares collected from the five businesses. Each of the five borrowers, in turn, earns an income of 1-s. The total income for this six-person economy is 5, resulting in an average income of 56\frac{5}{6} per person.
