Formula Used
The hour time card calculator uses the following formulas to calculate your earnings:
Regular Earnings: Hourly Rate × Regular Hours
Overtime Earnings: Hourly Rate × Overtime Hours × Overtime Multiplier (default: 1.5)
Total Earnings: Regular Earnings + Overtime Earnings
By default, the calculator assumes a 1.5x overtime rate, which is common in many jurisdictions. You can adjust this multiplier if your overtime rate differs.
Worked Example
Let's say you work 40 regular hours and 5 overtime hours at $15 per hour:
Hourly Rate: $15
Regular Hours: 40
Overtime Hours: 5
Overtime Multiplier: 1.5
The calculation would be:
Regular Earnings: $15 × 40 = $600
Overtime Earnings: $15 × 5 × 1.5 = $112.50
Total Earnings: $600 + $112.50 = $712.50
Your total pay for this week would be $712.50.
