Formula Used

The calculator uses these formulas to compute your bi-weekly time and pay:

Regular Hours

Regular Hours = Work Days × Hours per Day

Total Break Time

Total Break Time = Work Days × (Break Minutes per Day ÷ 60)

Total Hours Worked

Total Hours Worked = Regular Hours + Overtime Hours

Estimated Paycheck

Estimated Paycheck = (Regular Hours × Hourly Rate) + (Overtime Hours × Overtime Rate)

All calculations are performed in real-time as you enter values.

Worked Example

Let's calculate a bi-weekly paycheck for an employee with these details:

Input	Value
Hourly Rate	$15.00
Work Days per Bi-Week	10
Hours per Day	8
Break Minutes per Day	30
Overtime Hours	5
Overtime Rate	$22.50

Calculation Steps

Regular Hours: 10 days × 8 hours/day = 80 hours
Total Break Time: 10 days × (30 minutes ÷ 60) = 5 hours
Total Hours Worked: 80 + 5 = 85 hours
Estimated Paycheck: (80 × $15) + (5 × $22.50) = $1,200 + $112.50 = $1,312.50

This example shows a bi-weekly paycheck of $1,312.50 for this employee.
