No idea what the RECOG check is.

The 5% differential is likely because of how it was calculated. I think they used your Jan-Jun earnings, then doubled that amount (or some form of estimated calculation for the full year) and then paid 5% of that. Since hardly anyone will earn exactly the same Jul-Dec as they do Jan-Jun, the number will almost always be different than 5% of your full year Jan-Dec number.

It'll all come out in the wash in Feb. Any over/unders on the first check will be accounted for.
