The 'Daily' column is the annual salary divided by the 184-day teacher calendar.
The same plan also prints a min/midpoint/max pay range for pay grade 01 (Teacher, Registered Nurse, Professional Technology Support); this record is the step schedule, not that range.
decimals is 2 because of the Daily column; the Salary column is printed in whole dollars.
The sheet also prints a daily rate column beside the annual salary (254.49 at the first step rising to 429.37 at the last, on a 184 day contract). It is not reproduced as a lane here because this grid is in annual dollars.
- Soft spot: Transcribed from an image. Every row was checked as salary / 184 = the printed daily rate.
