Explain how the bank size is calculated, just like
strike, defence, covert, income is, please.
I really don't have any clue how the algorithm works atm.

Later edit:

You could add the explanations on the explainMe.php page.

Thank you

no one knows how the bank size is really calculated since there are
too many variables to take into account.

To be fair to Ben and probably everyone else reading the first post it looked like you were asking people to explain to you how bank size works.

It didn't seem apparent that you were asking the feature to be added to the "explanations" update that Jason has recently added to the game.

You are right, I'm sorry. I'll edit the first post.

Last I checked the only difficult part of the formula was knowing the number of upgrades...
It was I believe natural income (without the nox and realm alert modifiers) * 1.5 *number of upgrades
Or at least something like that and there was a way to check how many upgrades you've added (can't remember off the top of my head)
May not be completely accurate as its top of my head from 4 years ago...
Try searching and im sure you'll find both the bank formula and the way to determine how many upgrades your bank has.

Edit: Heres a good thread on the topic

The algorithm I am applying is this one:
(income from miners and untrained)/turn * 72 ( 1.5 days income) = natural bank
Now to calculate the bank size I'd need to know what's the multiplier for that account
( 10% ones added using 1 MTs or those added from SS/USS ).
Another thing that I'd need to know is what's the percent added by alliance bank increase.

So bank size = natural bank * multiplier * percent added by alliance bank increase / 100
For my bank this formula works, but that's only because I know exactly how
many multipliers I have and how many alliance upgrades were added.

I'm pretty sure my formula is correct but, if I'd buy a new account, I'd have no chance
of finding out what is the multiplier and what's the alliance bonus percent that was applied
to that account, that's the reason why I prefer that admin adds those details in the
explainme page.

You can back trace if you want. Really easy
Take your current miners, and bank size Divide them so you get Bank size per miner, compare to a miner that doesn't get the bonus from a new account, or from the base formula

You must take PPTs(that increase bank) into account also right?
