Default Allocation formula

Hi,

I am looking for a formula that can calculate the following.

If I had a group of people and £100 I need to allocate it according to
their needs ie.

Person A need £50
Person B needs £20
Person C need £30

I need a formula that knows to allocate to Person A first, then B,
then C. I would like the allocated amount to show in the next collum.
ie.if the situation was again £100. But the needs were different - it
would allocate the available funds.

Person A needs £50 £50
Person B needs £60 £40
Person C needs £40 £0

I hope this makes sense!! Thank you!
