Worked example as rendered: BA, step 1 = $61,877 a year, $5,156.42 a month spread over 12 months. Monthly and daily figures are arithmetic on the published annual cell, before any supplement, stipend or deduction.
Schedule A of the 2024-2029 agreement between the Board and the Bloomfield Education Association. The contract prints one guide per year (Year 1 2024-25 through Year 5 2028-29); this is Year 3, 2026-27.
BA+15 and BA+30 are paid only at step 11; the guide leaves those cells blank at every lower step and they are recorded as null, not zero.
Checked against the Year 4 (2027-28) guide printed directly beneath it: the MA minus BA differential is identical row by row in both years (2,150 at step 1, 3,600 at step 2, 3,000 at steps 3 to 8, 4,500 at step 9 and 6,000 at steps 10 and 11), which confirms both readings.
