Formula Used

The calculator uses these formulas to calculate financial data from time cards:

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

Where:

Regular Hours = Number of regular hours worked (up to 40 hours per week)
Overtime Hours = Number of hours worked beyond regular hours
Hourly Rate = Employee's hourly wage
Overtime Rate = 1.5 or 2.0 (depending on labor laws)

Worked Example

Let's calculate the pay for an employee who works 45 hours in a week at $20/hour with 1.5x overtime:

Given:

Hourly Rate = $20
Regular Hours = 40
Overtime Hours = 5
Overtime Rate = 1.5

Calculations:

Regular Pay = 40 × $20 = $800
Overtime Pay = 5 × ($20 × 1.5) = 5 × $30 = $150
Total Pay = $800 + $150 = $950
Total Hours = 40 + 5 = 45 hours

The employee should be paid $950 for 45 hours of work.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between regular and overtime pay?

Regular pay is for hours worked within standard working hours (typically 40 hours per week). Overtime pay is for hours worked beyond regular hours, usually paid at a higher rate (1.5x or 2.0x the regular rate).

How do I calculate overtime pay?

Multiply the number of overtime hours by the employee's hourly rate multiplied by the overtime rate (1.5 or 2.0). Add this to the regular pay to get the total pay.

What if an employee works more than 8 hours in a day?

In many jurisdictions, hours worked beyond 8 hours in a day are considered overtime, even if the total weekly hours are under 40. Check your local labor laws for specific requirements.
