a. Regular military compensation consists of basic pay, basic allowance for subsistence, basic allowance for housing, and
the tax advantage that accrues to military personnel because the allowances are not subject to federal income tax. The
basic allowance for housing differs between service members with and without dependents and varies regionally. The
figures shown are for members with dependents. For all but the warrant officer pay grades, the figures for the housing
allowance and the tax advantage are DoD's estimates of nationwide averages. CBO adjusted the figures for the warrant
officer pay grades to eliminate the effects of unusual regional distributions of personnel in those grades.
