Hi. For each month that Duke's Social Security retirement benefits are withheld due to the earnings test, 5/9ths of 1% of his primary insurance amount (PIA) would be added back to his benefit rate when he reaches full retirement age (FRA).
For example, let's say Duke's PIA is $1800, which is the benefit rate he'd have received if he had started drawing his benefits at his FRA of 66. However, Duke's benefit rate is reduced for age to $1560 because he started his benefits when he turned age 64. Duke continues working after claiming his benefits, and due to his earnings 6 months of his benefits are withheld between ages 64 and 66. As a result, when Duke reaches FRA, $60 (i.e. 5/9ths of 1% x $1800 x 6 months) would be added back to his benefit rate. That would increase Duke's benefit rate from $1560 to $1620.
