An illustration from public averages, not a quote. Your real number comes from the task list in your own posting.
Each line is a share of the salary, rounded to the nearest $100. Both shares are the federal Bureau of Labor Statistics averages for private companies with 1 to 49 workers (Employer Costs for Employee Compensation, June 2025). The same rule runs on every page of this site.

Only the blue box. A posting pays one rate for every hour, including the hours of routine work software can do. If 20 of 40 hours need a person, the loaded cost of the seat is spread over half as many hours of real work, so each of those hours costs twice as much. Sorting the duties is how you find your number: which tasks software can do today.
