positions range from $123,175 to $185,100

adjustment for their area.
Percentage Pay Adjustments by Geographic Locality
Salaries are calculated for each location based on the percentage
amounts in the chart below. The base pay in the Base GS Pay Scale above
is multiplied by the percentage adjustment and the result is then added
to the base pay.
For example, if you are a GS-10, Step 1 in Atlanta your base pay
is $46,691 and
the percentage adjustment for Atlanta is 19.29% so you'll multiply:
$46,691 x 1.1929 = $55,698
Therefore, the salary for a GS-10, Step 1 in Atlanta is
$55,698
But we've done all this figuring for you!
