The website links to the FAQ for info about the calculation method, but I didn’t see the info there.
The 10th ed. was copyrighted in 2019, and US wage levels rose about 18% from 2019 to 2022 alone. So these cutoffs were even less demanding in 2019 than they are today; the 81K cutoff for asking more than 1.00% might be close to 100K in mid-2024 wages.
I believe the values come from the 10th anniversary edition of the TLYCS book. They should be in the FAQ on the website and I’m surprised they’re not.

Thanks for the valuable context, Jason and MHR!
