To re-iterate the 696hrs is 53hrs min guarantee, which (in non Covid times) is rare. Optimum hours are about 71 per BP and the long term history of the fleet usually reflects a standard roster built at 65-71 hrs. Taking an average of 68 that makes $184k first year pay on the standard roster. A few years ago the average pay over the fleet was just shy of $200k, without including bonuses or allowances.
With the rostered work hours at present some FOs will gross $230-240k this FY, not including bonus or allowances.
