How this is worked out
5 steps
- 2026 pay tables (Executive Order 14368 of December 18, 2025, Schedule 8).
- Army pay comes from the same Schedule 8 table as every other service; the branch changes no amount here.
- E-5 at 6 years falls in the "over 4 years" column: $3946.80 a month.
- Annual basic pay = 12 x 3946.80 = $47361.60.
- Taxable $3946.80 + non-taxable $0.00 = $3946.80 a month.
