Formula Used
Calculation Formula
Total Hours Worked: End Time - Start Time
Net Payable Hours: Total Hours Worked - Break Duration
Total Earnings: Net Payable Hours × Hourly Rate
The calculator uses simple arithmetic to determine your net payable hours by subtracting your break time from your total hours worked. This gives you an accurate figure for payroll purposes.
Worked Example
Let's say you worked from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM with a 30-minute break and earn $20 per hour.
| Input | Value |
|---|---|
| Start Time | 9:00 AM |
| End Time | 5:00 PM |
| Break Duration | 30 minutes |
| Hourly Rate | $20.00 |
Using the formula:
- Total Hours Worked = 5:00 PM - 9:00 AM = 8 hours
- Net Payable Hours = 8 hours - 0.5 hours = 7.5 hours
- Total Earnings = 7.5 hours × $20.00 = $150.00
This example shows how the calculator accounts for breaks when determining your total earnings.
