Spell Damage and Max Magicka

I know 10.5 Max Magicka is equal to 1 Spell Damage, and I know that abilities scale off of both. My question is, how do they scale off of both?
Do they scale additively, meaning if I have 2000 Spell Damage and 39,900 Max Magicka, my abilities are scaling off an effective 2000 + 39900/10.5 = 2000 + 3800 = 5800 Spell Damage?
Additively seems highly unlikely, so do they scale in some weird combination? I.e. 50% of their damage is off Spell Damage and the remaining 50% is off Max Magicka beyond some baseline number?
Also, do light and heavy attacks scale off of Max Magicka at all? Does Major Sorcery buff the supposed SP derived from each 10.5 points of Magicka?
Does anyone know?

✭✭✭✭Each skill is affected differently. @Asayre has done huge writeups on this detailing each skill.
The short version is basically the way you indicate, effective spell power.
Unless you're looking for some high level of detail, that will do you.Just because you don't like the way something is doesn't necessarily make it wrong...
Earn it.
IRL'ing for a while for assorted reasons, in forum, and in game.I am neither warm, nor fuzzy...
Probably has checkbox on Customer Service profile that say High Aggro, 99% immunity to BS0 -
TheStealthDude✭✭✭✭Light/heavy attacks scale off both max stat and spell/weapon power but weapon/spell power is weighted FAR heavier in that calculation, compared to the calculation for damage of abilities.Edited by TheStealthDude on May 31, 2017 7:41PM0 -

If you look at that page you can see every skill in the game and how they scale off of spell/weapon damage and max stat.
So for example if you have Assasins Blade the formula is
"0.0500462 Magicka + 0.524776 SD + 1.31781 (Magicka, R2 = 1, ratio = 10.49)"
So if you have 40000 max magicka and 2000 spell damage then the number is:
0.0500462 (40000) + 0.524776 (2000) + 1.31781 (Magicka, R2 = 1, ratio = 10.49) = 3051.4
So that skill will do 3052.7 damage as base damage.
