German term or phrase: hochgerechnet
Hi,

Any advice on this sentence would be much appreciated. I'm finding it so confusing to translate. Is there a source error? A verb seems to be missing in the second clause:

...so wird die zu zahlende Vergütung dennoch nach Maßgabe der vorstehenden Regelungen berechnet, die dem Kandidaten zu zahlende Vergütung also auf ein Jahresbruttogrundgehalt (inkl. aller Nebenleistungen) hochgerechnet.

..the payable remuneration shall still be calculated in accordance with the above provisions, i.e. rounded up to an annual gross base salary (including all ancillary services) - the remuneration payable to the candidate.

?? My solution is not correct. Shouldn't it be 'hochrechnet'?

Thanks in advance.

Explanation:
Projected, as in the previous web ref. neither of the discussion (E&W) entrants (Scots) intrants has deigned to look up, doesn't work as well prepositionally.

Explanation:
it's ok as you can reuse the first "wird" at the start of the phrase,

"die dem Kandidaten zu zahlende Vergütung WIRD also auf ein Jahresbruttogrundgehalt (inkl. aller Nebenleistungen) hochgerechnet"

disagree  Cilian O'Tuama: Rounding up would be numerical, e.g. writing 3.3 instead of 3.29. This here also has to with time.

projected onto


Explanation:
That's what businesses have to do all the time - make projections based on incomplete data.

..compensation will still be calculated in accordance with the above provisions, i.e. the compensation to be paid to the candidate will be projected onto an annual gross base salary (including other benefits)

as formula


Explanation:
2nd part of sentence: ...."; i.e. the compensation owed the candidate serves as formula for the determination of a gross annual base salary (incl. any incidental benefits)"

That's what they are trying to say, IMO
