Formula Used

The calculation follows these steps:

Regular Pay = Hourly Rate × Regular Hours

Overtime Pay = Hourly Rate × Overtime Rate × Overtime Hours

Gross Pay = Regular Pay + Overtime Pay

Net Pay = Gross Pay - Deductions

Where Overtime Rate is either 1.5 (time-and-a-half) or 2.0 (double time).

Worked Example

Let's calculate earnings for an employee with:

Hourly Rate: $15.00
Regular Hours: 40
Overtime Hours: 10
Overtime Rate: 1.5x
Deductions: $50.00

Regular Pay = $15.00 × 40 = $600.00

Overtime Pay = $15.00 × 1.5 × 10 = $225.00

Gross Pay = $600.00 + $225.00 = $825.00

Net Pay = $825.00 - $50.00 = $775.00

This employee would receive $775.00 after deductions.
