Calculating the UK out:

£799 for the phone
2.91% of pay
Salary they calculated it at is £27,457

That sits abit lower than the median here in the UK but the mean is much higher

The UK government says the median household income is 32,349£, the mean is 39,328£ in 2022. Data from 2020: the median was 29,900£, while the mean was 36,900£.

In both cases the median comes way closer to the £27,457 you calculated than the mean.
