What this pays, and what it is worth
- Neither high nor low. Arizona is 17 of 50 states for this job, with a middle wage of $49,620. What that is worth is the question the rest of this page answers.
- Against other work in Arizona, this sits in the middle: 305 of 491 occupations with published pay. Solidly ordinary for the state, which is not the same as ordinary nationally.
- No great distortion either way. Arizona costs about what the country costs, so from $49,620, take-home of $41,212 is worth roughly $40,761 in national money. The average comes to $51,010, above the middle, thanks to the top of the range.
- Arizona ranks 17 of 50 for computer, automated teller, and office machine repairers at $49,620. The nominal figure is unremarkable; the adjusted figures are where the state's actual position for this occupation is determined.
- Computer, automated teller, and office machine repairers ranks 305 of 491 occupations in Arizona by median pay, in the middle bands. Within-state and national positions are separate measurements and a job commonly sits in different quartiles on each.
- Price parity in Arizona is near the national base, so for computer, automated teller, and office machine repairers, whose median is $49,620, the adjusted figure of $40,761 differs little from $41,212 retained after tax. The state's position for this occupation is therefore set by wage and tax rather than by living costs. At $51,010 the mean overshoots the median — the usual right-skewed shape.

Sources and assumptions
- Treat $49,620 as a midpoint for Arizona, not a promise. The tenth percentile is $36,670 and the ninetieth is $63,470 — a wide band, and where you land in it depends on far more than the state.
- One filer, no dependants, no pension contributions — that is the household behind Arizona's $41,212, worked from $49,620. That is on purpose. It lets states be compared with each other, not with each other's family circumstances. Local city taxes are left out. Locally this work ranks 305 of 491.
- One number stands for prices across all of Arizona, which is a simplification — big cities cost far more than small towns. Read $40,761, the adjusted value of that $49,620 median, as a way to compare states fairly, not as a quote for any particular place. The two datasets are also from different years. This job sits at 305 of 491 in the state.
- The Arizona median of $49,620 describes the midpoint of a distribution spanning $36,670 to $63,470. Because that spread is typically larger than the interstate spread, a state median is a weak predictor for any individual worker in this occupation.
- The Arizona take-home of $41,212, on $49,620 for work ranking 305 of 491 locally, models the simplest household deliberately: holding it constant is what makes the interstate comparison meaningful. It also means the absolute figure overstates liability for most real filers, and municipal income taxes are outside the model entirely. The occupation ranks 305 of 491 in the state.
- Price deflation uses one statewide parity for Arizona, so $40,761 — the adjusted value of that $49,620 median — establishes comparability between states rather than accuracy within one. The wage and parity series are dated independently, each following its own publication cycle, and neither is projected forward. This occupation sits at 305 of 491 locally.
Questions people ask
How much does pay for this job actually vary?
Most of these jobs pay within a close range — $36,670 at the tenth percentile, $63,470 at the ninetieth.
Does a bigger number here mean I am better off?
Not on its own. Prices in Arizona run above the national level, so the same dollars buy less here. Adjusted for that, this pay is worth $40,761 — the wage did not change, only what it covers.
Where does the difference between the wage and my paycheck go?
Three of them are federal and one is not. After income tax, Social Security, Medicare and Arizona's own levy, $41,212 remains.
Why is this job missing from some states?
The survey withholds small samples rather than publish an unreliable number. Pay appears for 50 states here, and a missing state means too few reports, not no jobs.
What is the dispersion of this occupation's wage distribution?
The tenth-to-ninetieth percentile span ($36,670 to $63,470) sits at or below the family's median dispersion, indicating relatively standardized compensation. Percentiles are published per state, so this dispersion is specific to Arizona rather than a national figure.
How does the state price level affect real compensation?
Arizona's regional price parity sits above the national average, so nominal wages overstate purchasing power. Deflating take-home by the state price level gives $40,761 in national-average terms. ⚠️ RPPs are an all-items index; housing parities vary far more widely than the headline figure.
What accounts for the gap between gross wage and take-home here?
Take-home of $41,212 reflects federal income tax, OASDI, Medicare and Arizona income tax for a single filer with no adjustments. The state layer is levied in addition to the federal one; only its rate and base differ between states.
Why does this occupation lack published estimates in every state?
BLS suppresses estimates failing disclosure or reliability criteria. This occupation has published state-level estimates in 50 of the fifty-one jurisdictions. Suppression reflects sample size and confidentiality rules, and cannot be read as an absence of employment.
