Is the underlined part OK?

The total income of 2009 is CNY 511,200, including a wage and subsidy of CNY 414,00 and a bonus of CNY 97,200;

Is the underlined part OK? And is the whole sentence OK?

Thank you.

The words "wage" and "bonus" suggest a personal income from employment, whereas "subsidy" does not fit with that idea, so it seems a bit odd. "for 2009" seems more natural than "of 2009".
