What this pays, and what it is worth
- Oklahoma is one of the better-paying states for this job. The middle earner takes $51,880, which ranks 11 of 50 states with published figures. That is about 8.51% above the national middle.
- Ordinary, locally speaking. This job ranks 233 among 492 occupations Oklahoma publishes pay for.
- Here is where Oklahoma does better than its wage suggests. From a median of $51,880 you keep $42,031, and because things cost less here than the national average, that behaves like $47,608 would elsewhere. The average is lower, $51,310, so pay clusters nearer the top than usual.
- Oklahoma ranks 11 of 50 states publishing a median for computer, automated teller, and office machine repairers, at $51,880 — about 8.51% above the national median. A state's position on nominal pay is the figure wage tables report and the least informative of the three on this page, because it survives neither the tax adjustment nor the price adjustment intact for most occupations.
- Position 233 of 492 in Oklahoma places computer, automated teller, and office machine repairers in the middle of the state's wage distribution. Because within-state and cross-state rankings measure different things, this figure and the national one above should be read together rather than as a single verdict.
- After federal, FICA and Oklahoma income tax, retained pay for computer, automated teller, and office machine repairers on $51,880 is $42,031. Deflating by the state's price level — below the national average — gives $47,608 in national-average terms. ⚠️ That figure is purchasing power, not a wage, and nobody is paid it; it is what the take-home buys. The mean of $51,310 falls below the median, a left skew that is uncommon in wage data.

Sources and assumptions
- Half the people doing this work in Oklahoma earn less than $51,880. The published range is $36,260 up to $68,370, so an individual figure can sit a long way from the middle in either direction.
- One filer, no dependants, no pension contributions — that is the household behind Oklahoma's $42,031, worked from $51,880. 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 233 of 492.
- Two cautions on $47,608, the adjusted value of that $51,880 median. It levels out prices with a single number for all of Oklahoma. No actual address matches that. The wage figures and price figures are also from different years. Each is published on its own timetable. This work sits at 233 of 492 locally.
- Reported values are medians; for computer, automated teller, and office machine repairers in Oklahoma the tenth-to-ninetieth percentile band is $36,260 to $68,370. Neither the median nor the band is an offer rate, and neither accounts for hours, shift differentials or overtime.
- The Oklahoma take-home of $42,031, on $51,880 for work ranking 233 of 492 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 233 of 492 in the state.
- This $47,608 adjusted figure, worked from $51,880, rests on a state-level price parity averaging over within-state dispersion larger than much of the between-state dispersion. Wage and price vintages differ by publication schedule. The result is directionally sound and not address-specific, for work at 233 of 492 in the state. The occupation ranks 233 of 492 locally.
Questions people ask
How much does pay for this job actually vary?
The range here is narrow. From $36,260 at the bottom tenth to $68,370 at the top, pay for this work clusters rather than spreads.
What does this pay actually buy where I live?
A smaller wage in a cheaper place is not automatically less. Adjusted for local prices, this is worth $47,608.
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 Oklahoma's own levy, $42,031 remains.
Why is this job missing from some states?
Because the survey suppresses a figure when too few employers report it. This occupation has published pay in 50 states — the rest are withheld to protect confidentiality, which is not the same as nobody doing the work there.
What is the dispersion of this occupation's wage distribution?
The tenth-to-ninetieth percentile span ($36,260 to $68,370) sits at or below the family's median dispersion, indicating relatively standardized compensation. Percentiles are published per state, so this dispersion is specific to Oklahoma rather than a national figure.
What is this occupation's price-adjusted compensation in this state?
Oklahoma's regional price parity is at or below the national average, so nominal wages understate purchasing power. Take-home deflated by the state price level is $47,608 in national-average terms. The adjustment uses an all-items index and does not isolate housing.
What accounts for the gap between gross wage and take-home here?
Take-home of $42,031 reflects federal income tax, OASDI, Medicare and Oklahoma 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.
