How it is calculated

Monthly compensation = allowance per day × working days per month. Annual compensation = monthly compensation × 12.

If compensation isn't the same every month (the number of working days shifts with the official production calendar), use the average working days per month (roughly 21) for an annual estimate, and the actual day count for a specific month.

Meal compensation above any tax-exempt limit set by internal company policy can be taxed as part of the employee's income — check this with your accountant for your tax regime.
