    No. 1D15-1452.
    District Court of Appeal of Florida, First District.

    Pamela Jo Bondi, Attorney General, and William H. Branch, Assistant Attorney General, Office of Attorney General Child Support Enforcement, Tallahassee, for Appellant.

   BILBREY, J.

The Florida Department of Revenue appeals the amended final judgment of dissolution of marriage, and' the second amended final judgment which denied rehearing of the earlier judgment, on the issue of the determination of the father, John E. Price’s gross income under section 61.30(2)(a), Florida Statutes, for purposes of calculating the child support award. We review the trial court’s application of the statute to the undisputed facts de novo. Fatter v. Fatter, 51 So.3d 1235, 1236 (Fla. 2d DCA 2011).

The issue in this case is whether the father’s overseas housing allowance (OHA) for the period he was deployed, to Bahrain on active service with the United States Navy, prior to his retirement, must be included in his gross income under section 61.30(2)(a), Florida Statutes. It was undisputed that the OHA is an allowance to offset off-base housing expenses when a Service member is deployed to a location where housing costs are higher than the Basic Allowance for Housing (BAH) covers. In calculating past child support due, the trial judge concluded that the father’s gross income should not include the father’s OHA for the periods he benefited from such payments, but did not explain how she reached that conclusion.

Section 61.30(2), Florida Statutes provides in pertinent part:

(a) Gross income shall include, but is not limited to, the following:
1. Salary or wages.
2. Bonuses, commissions, allowances, overtime, tips, and other similar payments.
13. Reimbursed expenses or in kind payments to the extent that they reduce living expenses....

The statute does not exclude military allowances, temporary or one-time bonuses, or earmarked allowances or reimbursements for housing which cannot be spent on non-housing expenses. However, the Department does not argue that the OHA is salary under section 61.30(2)(a)l or an. allowance under 61.30(2)(a)2. Our analysis therefore concerns only section 61.30(2)(a)13.

The public policy of the child support guidelines statutes is to standardize and facilitate each patent’s “fundamental obligation to support his or her minor or legally dependent child” and is “based on the parent’s combined^ net income estimated to have been allocated to the child as if the parents and children were living in an intact household.” § 61.29, Fla. Stat. Although they apply foreign statutes which differ slightly from the Florida provision, we find the opinions in. Wilson v. Wilson, 855 N.W.2d 105 (N.D.2014) and Berkbigler v. Berkbigler, 921 P.2d 628 (Alaska 1996) persuasive. In both opinions, the courts held that' the Service member parents’ OHAs constituted subsistence allowances for daily living expenses. • Accordingly, the OHAs in those cases were required to be included in the Service member parents’ gross income for ^purposes of calculating past child support obligations.

Accordingly, the father’s OHA for the months he benefited from this allowance must be included in his gross income under section 61.30(2)(a)13, Florida Statutes. The trial court’s rulings to the contrary are reversed and this matter remanded for recalculation of the past child support obligation.. In all other respects, the amended final judgment and second amended final judgment are affirmed.

AFFIRMED IN PART, REVERSED IN PART, and REMANDED.

      . The father conceded at the trial level that BAH should be included in his gross-income, Accordingly, we do not address that issue.

      . While we can affirm a decision even if right for the wrong reason, we can only address arguments raised by ah appellant if the arguments are in the initial brief. Goings v. State, 76 So.3d 975 (Fla. 1st DCA 2011). If not raised, other issues are moot, Id.
      
     
      
      .We recognize that the learned trial judge was likely trying to avoid the potential inequity of a Service member stationed overseas and receiving OHA paying more child support than if that same Service member had been stationed in the United' States. However, we are constrained to use the definition, of gross income provided by statute. Any equitable consideration would be relevant to the. child support awarded per section 61.30(1 l)(a)ll', Florida Statutes, not'the gross income calculation under section 61.30(2), Florida Stat- ■ utes. See also Robinson v. Robinson, 657 So.2d 958, 960 (Flá. 1st DCA 1995) (holding that high cost of living of parent residing in California may be a valid' factor in deviating from child support-guidelines). .
