Worked example as rendered: BA, step 1 = $58,401 a year, $4,866.75 a month spread over 12 months. Monthly and daily figures are arithmetic on the published annual cell, before any supplement, stipend or deduction.

Year 4 of the 2023-2028 agreement between the Livingston Board of Education and the Livingston Education Association; the agreement prints a separate guide for each of its five years.

The document footnotes the MA+32 column: employees hired on or after 7/1/2023 have access only to the BA, MA, 2MA (not MA+32) and D guides for salary placement and lateral movement.

Step 6-7 is a combined row on the district's own guide.

Soft spot: Step 17 is printed with only four of the seven columns filled, and its BA and MA figures ($92,600 and $100,155) are lower than step 16 and identical in all five contract years. They are reproduced exactly as the guide prints them; blank cells are left null.
