Formula Used

The Split Time Time Card Calculator uses the following formulas to calculate the results:

Total Hours Worked

For each day, the hours worked are calculated as:

Hours Worked = End Time - Start Time

Total hours worked for the pay period is the sum of all daily hours worked.

Overtime Hours

Overtime hours are calculated for days marked as overtime:

Overtime Hours = Hours Worked (Overtime Days)

Total Pay

Total pay is calculated as:

Total Pay = (Regular Hours × Regular Rate) + (Overtime Hours × Overtime Rate)

These formulas ensure accurate calculation of hours worked, overtime, and total pay for employees on split time schedules.

Day 3: 9:00 AM - 5:00 PM (Overtime)

Day 4: 10:00 AM - 6:00 PM (Overtime)

Results:

Total Hours Worked: 32 hours
Overtime Hours: 16 hours
Total Pay: $640.00 (16 × $20) + $480.00 (16 × $30) = $1,120.00

These examples illustrate how the calculator accurately computes hours worked, overtime, and total pay for different pay periods and rates.
