Salary and tax withheld

[Rony]

Hey all,


I took a glance at my program's salary listings and the numbers don't add up. For a yearly income $41,600, the biweekly is $1,600 (a month's salary short)...they did not simply divide the annual by 24 to get the biweekly. Could it be that this after state income tax is withheld as an estimate..?
Was wondering if you all noticed the same with yours?
thanks!

You must be paid every two weeks, not twice a month.

$41600/26 = $1600

Exactly what I was going to say. There are more than 2x2 weeks in a month.

yes the typical payperiod adds up to 26 periods per year (occasionally there are 27).
