Manisha..this is a typical problem with start ups. There is no defined formula for this. You will have to go through an iterative process with founders to understand their financial needs and accordingly apportion salaries. Unless there is sufficient cash to pay for everything, do the allocation on need basis. If there is enough cash, do need + comparative market salary.

Salaries for gamers are often based on tournament winnings, sponsorships, and streaming revenue, varying widely. People who stream Nulls Brawl APK earns good amount of money.

Thank you for your reply, I am thinking to divided it on the basis of proportion, suppose one employee is content creator as well as a marketing person, I am taking the average salary for both role as per industry standard, basis of this i can calculate the proportion of each role in his salary and show in expense as per PnL category.

that should be okay. Ensure that both founders are aligned to this. Differentiated salaries can often become a bone of contention between founders.
