prorated
Charged by share
Prorated means divided or distributed proportionally, usually based on time or usage.
If you move out mid-month, your rent is prorated—you pay only for the days you occupied the apartment.
Insurance premiums, membership fees, and salaries are commonly prorated when the full period isn't completed: The refund was prorated based on the remaining months.
