Worked Example
Let's calculate earnings for a worker with:
- Hourly Rate: $15.00
- Regular Hours: 40.0
- Overtime Rate: $22.50 (1.5x $15.00)
- Overtime Hours: 5.5
Calculation:
- Regular Pay: 40 × $15.00 = $600.00
- Overtime Pay: 5.5 × $22.50 = $123.75
- Total Earnings: $600.00 + $123.75 = $723.75
This example shows how the calculator handles decimal hours and different pay rates.
