    First, your pay is reduced by 10%, which means you make 90% of the original amount:

    1320 x 0.90 = 1188

    When your pay is reduced 10% you now make $1,188 a week.

    Now you get a 10% raise,

    multiply the amount you make by 1.1 to get the new weekly pay:

    1188 x 1.1 = 1306.80

    Your current weekly pay is: $1,306.80
