First I apologize for having been mostly absent the last few weeks (and diminished the last few months), I've been stupidly tired and sometimes I look at a thread and say "I cannot respond right now without being an asshole, so let me wait until I'm not going to be an asshole" or like this thread "There is too much maths, brain no math, return when math can".
That said, let the accounting (and questions and requests) begin.
Narrator:
There are 9 people, one of whom (Walter) is getting a much lower share; his agreed upon pay would have been $450.
I count 8? Am I missing someone:
Azrael, Christine, Dareos, Haskell, Jednesa, Malga'Mar, Stenet, Walter.
This means once Walter takes his smaller cut, we're splitting it 7 ways. (And for proper accountant geekery, what is Walter's share rate? Half? A flat $450?)
My accounting (and notes), because I can't see where any of you are getting your sums:

[1] This is presuming those books actually do not have any 'study' value. And that leads to... GM: What are
Three Faces,
Songs on High, and
The Ways of True Worship?
[2] No value listed, which means, no we don't even know how much we could be getting to determine the split.
* These weapons pricings are off: Shortswords cost $400, not $40; Long knives cost $120, not $200; Fine Maul of Smiting (+1 Puissant), you threw an extra $160 on there, which is exactly x2CF, is it also Silvered?
Lastly can multiple books covering the same skill be studied for increased 'studying capacity'? And have you yet determined whether this is even required or not? So far, as I mentioned before, you've only require "training" for new spells.
Christine Bjorn:
Everyone happy with that arrangement?
Nooooooooooooooooooooope. :P
Requests and Questions:
As a Player I request Jednesa get the Amulet vs Evil. One, she's already wearing it, two... she has really low Will. Also I recommend she be given the Large potion of Minor Healing.
GM:
How much would it cost to "upsize" that Maul into a one handed mace for Jednesa (no other statistics changes aside from SM)? For example adding grip wraps and balance weights she she can easily wield it one handed? I was thinking the difference between "base weapon" costs.
Yes, I know it actually does less damage than her Crude Iron Wedge... but it's got Puissant, and the Wedge
cannot be enchanted. Otherwise I'll contemplate alternate routes for magical weapons for her.
Stenet might be wanting the Plate Armor, pending the question I ask below, or the Maul, pending answers above.
Stenet recommends everyone take 1 anti-demon candle (the good one). He might want to take the rest, pending accounting outcomes.
Finally Stenet may or may not request all the Scrolls, pending answers about their value, as noted below.
I'm waiting some answers on books before getting into them, but only Stenet would care, and he's mostly interested in
studying the
unnamed, undescribed (Occultism),
Magical Theory for the Neophyte (Thaumatology),
slim black book (Hidden Lore (Demons)),
The Unseen World (Hidden Lore (Demons)),
Unseen But Not Unheard (Hidden Lore (Spirits)),
demonskin book (Hidden Lore (Demons)),
Illuminated Scripture of the Blessed Triskelon (Theology (Triunism)),
Book of Binding and Bleeding (First Aid),
The Four Humors and Their Balance (Esoteric Medicine (Holy)),
Finality of the Flesh (Expert Skill (Thanatology))... but again this depends on answers to questions.
