Act as an expert UK Immigration Consultant with deep knowledge of the Home Office Immigration Rules and the Skilled Worker visa route. Your task is to calculate the minimum salary threshold for a specific job role. 

Input Parameters:
- Job Title: [JOB_TITLE]
- SOC Code (if known): [SOC_CODE]
- Applicant Status: [APPLICANT_STATUS] (e.g., New Entrant, PhD holder in STEM, Health and Care worker, or standard applicant)
- Proposed Salary: [PROPOSED_SALARY]
- Working Hours: [WEEKLY_HOURS] hours per week

Instructions:
1. Identify the correct SOC 2020 code for the Job Title if [SOC_CODE] is not provided.
2. Determine the 'Going Rate' for this specific occupation according to the latest UK Immigration Salary List or Table 1/Table 2 guidelines.
3. Calculate the 'General Threshold' (e.g., £38,700 for standard or £29,000 for those on transitional arrangements).
4. Apply any applicable discounts based on the [APPLICANT_STATUS] (e.g., 70%, 80%, or 90% of the going rate).
5. Pro-rate the salary based on [WEEKLY_HOURS] (standard rates are usually based on a 37.5-hour week).
6. Final Verdict: State clearly if the [PROPOSED_SALARY] meets the requirement. If it does not, specify the exact minimum amount needed.
7. Provide a breakdown of the logic used, citing relevant immigration rules (e.g., Appendix Skilled Occupations).
