in capita

Read a random definition: recompensation

A quick definition of in capita:

Per capita: This means dividing something equally among all the people in a group. For example, if there are six people and six cookies, each person would get one cookie. It can also mean giving something to each individual person. For example, if we want to know how much money each person in a country makes on average, we can find the per capita income.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: In capita means individually. It is often used interchangeably with per capita, which means divided equally among all individuals in the same class.

Example: If a person's will states that their estate should be divided equally among their three living children and three grandchildren, the estate would be divided into six parts, and each of the six individuals would receive an equal portion of the total estate, namely, one-sixth. This is an example of per capita distribution.

Explanation: The example illustrates how per capita distribution works. The estate is divided equally among all individuals in the same class, regardless of their relationship to the testator. In this case, the testator's children and grandchildren are in the same class, and each individual receives an equal share of the estate.

Additional Example: The average annual per capita income in the United States has increased over the last two years. This means that the total income earned in the country is divided equally among all individuals, and the average amount each person earns has gone up.

Explanation: This example illustrates how per capita can be used to describe the allocation of resources or income. In this case, the total income earned in the country is divided equally among all individuals, and the average amount each person earns has increased. This is an example of per capita allocation.
