OK let's see here. there are 365 days a year, and 2 weekends every 7 days. So we can take the 5 and multiply it by 52, the amount of weeks a year, getting 260 days of work a year. Then, we can divide $32,500 by 260, getting $125 every day.

5 days work each week
52 number of weeks per year
5*52=260 - 10=250
32500/250=130
