As set forth in Wright v. Osburn, 114 Nev. 1367, 1369 (1999), where the parties equally share joint physical custody of the children, the court must calculate the appropriate percentage of gross income for each parent, “subtract the difference between the two and require the parent with the higher income to pay the parent with the lower income that difference.” After this calculation is made, “the district court also has the option to adjust the amount of the award where special circumstances exist. See NRS 125B.080(9).”
