Worked Example
Let's calculate pay for an employee who worked 40 regular hours and 5 overtime hours at $15/hour with a 1.5x overtime rate and $200 in deductions.
| Component | Calculation | Amount |
|---|---|---|
| Regular Pay | $15 × 40 | $600.00 |
| Overtime Pay | $15 × 1.5 × 5 | $112.50 |
| Gross Pay | $600 + $112.50 | $712.50 |
| Net Pay | $712.50 - $200 | $512.50 |
This example shows how the calculator breaks down payroll components. The final net pay is $512.50 after deductions.
