Spousal and Child Maintenance and Final settlement

Hi,
Crikey this is hard work- I took some time to figure out the precise(?) costs of two households compared with one and the figures are rather different from my ballpark assumptions !

My monthly income is 6K and my wife is increasing her hours regardless so she will make £1000 month.

Her new expenses would be £1908 and mine would be £3178.
I think that includes about everything

I have included the cost of a new 250K interest only mortgage (£1000).
(I get A CSA figure of £1207 per month on direct.gov but I haven''t applied it)

So the assets are again 660K & + my pension is about 45 gross and lump sum of 27K

Sorry my initial figures were so rubbish!
Thanks,
