Jane and John Doe get a two room apartment to share with Bill. How does the rent get split?
A. 50/50
B. 66/33

What about security deposit, application fees, electricity? A or B ? TIA

Depends on the rental agreement and subleasing.

Depends on how much Jane puts out upon request.

That, my dear sir, is what we call a "variable".

Does the couple get a bigger bedroom with a private bathroom, or do they have equal personal spaces?

Probably 60/40 depending on the size of the master bedroom/bath.

As long as your rental agreement allows it, I think 50/50 for rent, security deposits, fees, etc is fair.

66/34 is fair for all "consumables" like electricity, water, cable, internet, etc.

Then split rent/deposit 50/50, and split utilities 67/33.

This whole scenario ignores the bigger problem, which is that, eventually, Jane will realize that she is with a man who can't provide her with their own space, that she has to live with other men in order to have a roof over her head. Soon, she will frick Bill and leave John for a more suitable partner.

Get floor plan with SF

Figure out $/SF

Bill pays 33% for common areas and 100% of his areas that are not shared

This is all true, and eventually this will come to fruition, at which point Jane will probably ditch Bill as well for being equally unable to provide for her, she'll run off with some fancy used car dealer she met at Superior Grill, and John and Bill will be stuck jerking off to midget Venezuelan clown porn and splitting their internet 50/50.
