Understanding the Results

The calculator provides several key pieces of information:

  • Regular Pay: Your earnings from regular hours worked.
  • Overtime Pay: Your earnings from overtime hours worked.
  • Total Earnings: The sum of regular and overtime pay.
  • Weekly Hours: The total hours worked in the week.

Formula Used

The calculator uses the following formulas to determine your pay:

Regular Pay: Hourly Rate × Regular Hours

Overtime Pay: (Hourly Rate × Overtime Rate) × Overtime Hours

Total Earnings: Regular Pay + Overtime Pay

Weekly Hours: Regular Hours + Overtime Hours

Where:

  • Hourly Rate = Your regular pay rate per hour
  • Regular Hours = Number of hours worked at your regular rate
  • Overtime Rate = Multiplier for overtime hours (typically 1.5 or 2)
  • Overtime Hours = Number of hours worked at overtime rate

Worked Example

Let's say you work at a rate of $20/hour with overtime at 1.5x. In one week you work:

  • 40 regular hours
  • 5 overtime hours

Here's how the calculation works:

Regular Pay: $20 × 40 = $800

Overtime Pay: ($20 × 1.5) × 5 = $150

Total Earnings: $800 + $150 = $950

Weekly Hours: 40 + 5 = 45 hours

Using this calculator, you would enter:

  • Hourly Rate: $20
  • Overtime Rate: 1.5
  • Regular Hours: 40
  • Overtime Hours: 5

The calculator will then display your total earnings of $950 and show the breakdown in the chart.
