Worked example as rendered: BA, step 1 = $69,639 a year, $5,803.25 a month spread over 12 months. Monthly and daily figures are arithmetic on the published annual cell, before any supplement, stipend or deduction.
The 2024-2028 agreement with the Manhasset Education Association prints a full 30 step by 10 column sheet for each contract year. This is the one headed '2026-2027 -> 2.00% + INCR.'
The MA-Pre2014 column applies only from step 8 down; steps 1 through 7 are blank on the sheet and are left empty here.
The top of every column plateaus: steps 17 to 19, 20 to 24 and 25 to 29 each repeat the same figures, which is how the schedule is printed.
- Soft spot: The top cells run to $167,536, above the $160,000 ceiling this project uses as a generic sanity check. They are printed that way and are normal for a Nassau County district at 30 years with a doctorate.

12 of the 29 step moves on that column carry no increase: the schedule prints the same figure for consecutive steps.
