Algorithm Steps

Step 1
Health Burden

H_eq = 0 + 1.25 × 0.01 = 0.01

HealthScore = min(100, 20 × log₁₀(1 + 100 × 0.01)) = 7.04

Step 2
Risk Score

Risk = 0.70 × 7.04 + 0.20 × (0.5 × 10) + 0.10 × (0 × 10) = 5.93

Step 3
Fun Score

FlowAdj = ((3 − 1) / 9) × 100 = 22.22

Fun = 0.45 × (2.8 × 20) + 0.25 × 22.22 + 0.20 × (7 × 10) + 0.10 × (3 × 10) = 47.76

Step 4
Outputs

WorthIt = clamp(50 + 0.5 × (47.765.93), 0, 100) = 70.91

FRR = (47.76 + 15) / (5.93 + 15) = 3
