Worked Example
Let's say you worked the following hours in a week:
- Monday: 8 hours
- Tuesday: 7 hours
- Wednesday: 8 hours
- Thursday: 6 hours
- Friday: 8 hours
With a regular rate of $20/hour and overtime at $30/hour after 8 hours:
- Total Hours: 8 + 7 + 8 + 6 + 8 = 37 hours
- Regular Hours: 5 days × 8 hours = 40 hours
- Overtime Hours: 37 - 40 = -3 (no overtime in this case)
- Regular Pay: 40 × $20 = $800
- Overtime Pay: $0 (since no overtime)
- Total Earnings: $800
