Formula Used

The total pay is calculated using the following formula:

Total Pay Formula

Total Pay = (Regular Hours × Hourly Rate) + (Overtime Hours × (Hourly Rate × Overtime Rate)) - Deductions

Where:

Regular Hours = Hours worked at standard rate
Hourly Rate = Your standard pay rate per hour
Overtime Hours = Hours worked beyond standard limit
Overtime Rate = Typically 1.5 for standard overtime
Deductions = Any taxes, benefits, or other withholdings

Worked Example

Let's calculate the pay for an employee who worked 45 hours at $20/hour with $50 in deductions.

Description	Value
Regular Hours	40
Overtime Hours	5
Hourly Rate	$20.00
Overtime Rate	1.5
Deductions	$50.00
Regular Pay	$800.00
Overtime Pay	$150.00
Gross Pay	$950.00
Total Pay	$900.00

Calculation steps:

Regular Pay = 40 × $20 = $800
Overtime Pay = 5 × ($20 × 1.5) = $150
Gross Pay = $800 + $150 = $950
Total Pay = $950 - $50 = $900
