Then that can change either way based off of bank decisions as well as what else happens that month. I don't think anyone is interested in trying to craft an IT system that tracks that real time just to come up with a fractional amount to double to correlate with pay.

Like someone else said, there are other places to check and make sure you're paid correctly. I would like to see DALPA come up with a 100% double check system for every GS and RR automatically. I think the company (inadvertently) makes millions off of "deny deny deny" when even a small percentage of pilots don't notice a mistake especially with short notice, uncommon events coupled with Byzantine rabbit hole contract language.
Thanks, Gloopy. Yeah I was above the trigger, but once I did all the math it came out correctly. Just makes me wonder if this is something I need to keep extra vigilance on.
