I am a grader for USA(J)MO. Let M be the amount of money that I earn from this (pre-tax). I will estimate the hours spent H as follows:

• For each problem P I grade, using a period of uninterrupted grading near the middle of my grading experience for that problem, I will estimate R_P, the amount of papers that I grade per hour in an ideal setting. These will be rounded to the nearest tenth.

• I will sum the amount of papers I graded divided by R_P over all problems P.

The reason that I am using this procedure is that I often grade in non-ideal conditions (e.g. while eating, while in class, etc.) which decrease the amount of papers I grade per hour, and it would be unfair to weight this time equally.

• Finally, I will add 1/6 hour (10 minutes) per conflict that I am involved in and that I take nonzero effort in resolving. (These occur when I assign a different score from another grader, and we need to agree on a score.)

This market resolves YES if M >= 25*H. Otherwise, it resolves NO.

After USA(J)MO scores are released, I will release the the set of all problems I graded, and for each problem the value R_P, the amount of papers I graded, and the number of conflicts I had. This will be when H will be computed. M will be computed (and the market resolved) at the time that MAA pays me or EOY 2026, whichever occurs first.

Disclaimer: The monetary payment had little impact on my decision to be a grader, and has little impact on how much I decide to grade.
