How it is calculated

Monthly compensation = device cost ÷ useful life × business use share ÷ 100 — essentially straight-line depreciation of the device, compensated to the employee in proportion to how much it's used for work.

Annual compensation = monthly compensation × 12.

This is one common way to size Art. 188 compensation for equipment, not the only correct method — the actual amount is always set by a written agreement with the employee, not by an automatic calculation.
