Legal Question in Family Law in California

What are the calculations for child support based on ? Does it include income from investments and income on property rentals ? If my ex partner is hiding money, how can I access that information ?

We have a 50/50 custody agreement and he wants to lower his child support claiming that he is not making any money at the moment.
