I read an interesting concept, that used proportions to figure out how much each person contributes. So if one person earns 60% of the household income, then that person pays 60% of the mortgage. That way they both pay x% of their income towards the mortgage, instead of splitting it in half, which would be a larger percentage for the lower income earner.
