The steps that were followed in the preceding example must be followed in every instance when it is necessary to determine the amount of GCT that can be awarded for a partial year served on a sentence. A short version of the preceding eight steps is shown below.

366 x .148 = 54.168 (366 + 54 = 420)
366 - 54= 312 x .148 = 46.176 (312 + 46 = 358)
366 - 46= 320 x .148 = 47.36 (320 + 47 = 367)
366 - 47= 319 x .148 = 47.212 (319 + 47 = 366)

Thus--319 days actually served plus 47 days of GCT equals 366 days, or a sentence of 1 year and 1 day.
