26,000 divided by 12 months equals 2166.66 per month.

Sounds like she just made a mistake in her planned speaking points. $500 is the correct figure if she said $26,000 a year which is equivalent to $500 a week.
$26,000/52 = $500
Pretty obvious to me that she just messed up saying month when she meant to say week. Surprised though she didn't catch herself. Still, she really danced around answering any of the gentleman's serious questions.
