Pay pattern
Net pay
Use the net payment you can identify. A gross salary and a received payment are not interchangeable.
Pay-period comparison ↗Frequency
Weekly, fortnightly and twice-monthly schedules have different assumed payment counts. Keep the frequency with the amount.
Pay-period comparison ↗Monthly basis
An annualised amount divided by twelve is a comparison figure. It need not match any particular month's receipts.
Pay-period comparison ↗Extra payday
The fixed comparison counts are not a calendar scan. Check the actual payroll dates before planning around an extra payment.
Pay-period comparison ↗Variable pay
Use a dependable amount for the comparison. Overtime, bonuses and changes in hours remain outside an equal-payment assumption.
Pay-period comparison ↗Count the dates
Fortnightly and twice monthly sound close. Their comparison counts are different.
Pay-period comparison
Enter the amount received after deductions and its frequency. The comparison assumes equal payments; it does not calculate tax or predict your actual annual pay.
