So, add these paycheck lines together. FLT ADV, FLT PAY, and REGULAR. That represents what the final PS percentage is multiplied against to get your base payout.

Take out 25% Fed withholding, your state taxes, 7.65% FICA taxes, ALPA's 1.85%, and DPMA dues. Add in deductions for 401k and HSA contributions and you'll get a good picture of what you'll take home.

Thanks for the info. If anyone knows how the percentage is calculated from pre-tax income, let me know. I know it involves 10% of profit up to $2.5 bil then 20% of any profit over $2.5 bil. I think all that goes back to the employees, but not sure how that works out to the actual percentages above.
