IBIFA also does not sacrifice MCA's [[FBC]] compliance. If raising one's favorite candidate to equal-top doesn't make that candidate win, it also can't change the preexisting winner.
 
 
 
 
4-slot version:
 
* Voters fill out 4-slot ratings ballots, rating each candidate as either Top, Middle1, Middle2, or Bottom. Default rating is Bottom, signifying least preferred and unapproved.
>* Any rating above Bottom is interpreted as Approval.
>* If any candidate/s X has a Top-Ratings score that is higher than any other candidate's approval score on ballots that don't top-rate X, elect the X with the highest TR score.
>* Otherwise, if any candidate/s X has a Top+Middle1 score that is higher than any other candidate's approval score on ballots that don't give X a Top or Middle1 rating, elect the X with the highest
>Top+Middle1 score.
 
>Otherwise, elect the candidate with the highest Approval score.*(Obviously other slot names are possible, such as 3 2 1 0 or A B C D or Top, High Middle, Low Middle, Bottom.)

It can also be adapted for use with ranked ballots:
 
* Voters rank the candidates, beginning with those they most prefer. Equal-ranking and truncation
 
*Voters rank the candidates, beginning with those they most prefer. Equal-ranking and truncation
are allowed.
* Ranking above at least one other candidate is interpreted as Approval.
 
Ranking above at least one other candidate is interpreted as Approval.
 
The ballots are interpreted as multi-slot ratings ballots thus:
* An approved candidate ranked below zero other candidates is interpreted as Top-Rated.
* An approved candidate ranked below one other candidate is interpreted as being in the second-highest ratings slot.
* An approved candidate ranked below threetwo other candidates is interpreted as being in the fourththird-highest ratings slot (even if this means the second-highest ratings slot is left empty).
ratings slot.
* An approved candidate ranked below twothree other candidates is interpreted as being in the thirdfourth-highest ratings slot (even if this means that a higher ratings slot is left empty).
ratings slot (even if this means the second-highest ratings slot is left empty).
An approved candidate ranked below three other candidates is interpreted as being in the fourth-highest
ratings slot (even if this means that a higher ratings slot is left empty).
 
And so on.
 
Say we label these ratings slot from the top A B C D etc.
* A candidate X's A score is the number of ballots on which it is A rated.
* A candidate X's A+B score is the number of ballots on which it is rated A or B.
* A candidate X's A+B+C score is the number of ballots on which it is rated A or B or C.
And so on.
 
>If any candidate/s X has aan Top-RatingsA score that is highergreater than any other candidate's approval score on ballots
 
If any candidate X has an A score that is greater than any other candidate's approval score on ballots
that don't A-rate X, then elect the X with the greatest A score.
 
Line 99 ⟶ 71:
 
And so on as in the versions that use a fixed number of ratings slots, if necessary electing the most
approved candidate.*
 
See also [[Relevant Rating]], a method which follows the same methodology as IBIFA but is intended to be more similar to Majority Judgment than MCA.

This is analogous with ER-Bucklin(whole) on ranked ballots:
