The system calculates the Base Annual amount as follows:

Hrs/Day x # of Days Empld = Annual Hours x Midpoint = Base Annual

Example: 7.5 Hrs/Day x 175 # of Days Empld = 1312.50 Annual Hours x $35.00 Midpoint = $45,937.50 Base Annual

Midpoint hourly rate calculations:

When the Hours field on the Salaries > Midpoint tab is populated with hours for a type 3-Hourly employee (e.g., 5.5 hours), the system will calculate the Minimum, Midpoint, and Maximum fields as an hourly rate.

If the Pay Rate is less than Minimum or is between Minimum/Midpoint or Midpoint/Maximum amounts, then the Pay Rate will remain the same unless the Maximum /Midpoint pay increase field is used on the Calculate/Data Preview window. If the increase by percent is utilized, then the Pay Rate will update by the increased amount only.

Example: If the Pay Rate is 7.75 (below the Midpoint rate of 8.00), and if the Midpoint is increased by 1% (8.00 x 0.01 = 0.08), the Pay Rate will update and increase to 7.83 (7.75 + 0.08). Likewise, if the user enters a negative percent (-1%), the program will decrease the Pay Rate by 0.08 and set the Pay Rate back to 7.67.

If the Pay Rate, Contract Total, and Contract Balance fields equal 0.00, the system will update to the Minimum amount.

Midpoint daily rate calculations:

When the Hours field on the Salaries > Midpoint tab is populated with 0.00 hours for a type 2-Non-contracted emp, the system will calculate the Minimum, Maximum, and Midpoint fields as a daily rate.

Example: Minimum Daily Rate (75.00) x # of Days Empld (187) = Annual Contract Amount (14,025)/# Annual Payments (12) = Pay Rate (1,168.75)

If a current employee is being calculated and their Pay Rate is between the Minimum/Midpoint or the Midpoint/Maximum amounts, then the daily rate will remain the same.

Example: Daily Rate on Job Info tab (77.00) x # of Days Empld (187) = Annual Contract Amount (14,399)/# Annual Payments (12) = Pay Rate (1,199.91)

If a current employee is being calculated and their Pay Rate is OVER the Maximum, the system will update the employee to the Maximum.

Example: Daily Rate on the Job Info tab (95.00) x # of Days Empld (187) = Annual Contract Amount (17,765)/# Annual Payments (12) = Pay Rate (1,480.41). This amount is OVER the Maximum, and the system will update to the Maximum Daily Rate (90.00) x # of Days Empld (187) = Annual Contract Amount (16,830)/# Annual Payments (12) = Pay Rate (1,402.50). The system reduces the salary to the Maximum amount because the original Pay Rate was OVER the Maximum amount.

If the Maximum or Midpoint pay increase field is used on the Data Preview – Mass Update Midpoint window on either Utilities > Mass Update page; or Maintenance > Staff Job/Pay > Job Info, the Pay Rate will update by the increased amount only.

Examples:

• Employee falls in between the Minimum and Midpoint range. Daily Rate on Job Info page (77.00) x # of Days Empld (187) = Annual Contract Amount (14,399)/# Annual Payments (12) = Pay Rate (1,199.91). 1% is entered into the Mid Percent Pay Increase column on the Data Preview window. Midpoint is 82.50 x 1% = .825 increase. The system will update the Daily Rate to 77.825 (77.00 + .825) x # of Days Empld (187) = Annual Contract Amount of 14,553/# Annual Payments (12) = Pay Rate (1,212.75).
• Employee is OVER Maximum range. Daily Rate on the Job Info page (95.00) x # of Days Empld (187) = Annual Contract Amount (17,765)/# Annual Payments (12) = Pay Rate (1,480.41). 1% is entered into the Max Percent Pay Increase column on the Data Preview window. Maximum is 90.00 x 1% = .90 increase. The system will update the Daily Rate to 90.90 (90.00 + .90) x # of Days Empld (187) = Annual Contract Amount (16,998)/# Annual Payments (12) = Pay Rate (1,416.50). The system reduces the salary to the Maximum amount plus the increase because the original Pay Rate was OVER the Maximum amount.
