st: best way to add up values sorted by a unique id

Hi everyone,
I have a dataset where I am trying to calculate total family income
identified by a unique family id "unifam". Each person in the unifam has
a totalannual income and I am trying to add totalannual income to
calculate annual family income - at the unifam level.
For example
unifam==1 person=1 totalincome == 60
unifam ==1 person=2 titalincome == 40
unifam=1 totalfamilyincome == 100
unifam ==2 person=1 totalincome = 100
unifam==2 person=2 totalincome= 50
unifam =2 person=3 totalincome =50
unifam =2 totalfamilyincome ==200
Thanks!
