Calculate a wage high enough so the business operates at a break-even point
Pay isn't ownership but if you want to be sure that people are property paid then a profit sharing bonus is much better than simply calculating a wage increase because profit sharing accounts for the yearly variance in business performance.
Wages are much harder to adjust in most places and can't be pinned to a variable factor like business performance.
