Typically a state's child support guidelines (remember: each state has its own guidelines) in an _equal timesharing/joint_ custody situation reflects the offsetting of each party's child support obligation against the other. Thus, the amount of support paid from parent A to parent B is the difference of the two amounts. As such, the guidelines envision that each party is paying for the child's expenses during the time that the child is with them, and again the support payment reflects the differences in income. For example, if the two parties have equal incomes, neither would pay the other -- each pays the child's expenses during their respective time.
You really should speak to a family law attorney in your jurisdiction to clarify the details. Good luck.
