Formula Used
The calculator uses the following formulas to calculate your earnings:
Regular Pay: Regular Hours × Hourly Rate
Overtime Pay: Overtime Hours × (Hourly Rate × 1.5)
Total Earnings: Regular Pay + Overtime Pay
Where:
- Regular Hours = Total Hours (if ≤ 40) or 40 (if > 40)
- Overtime Hours = Total Hours - 40 (if > 40) or 0 (if ≤ 40)
Note: This calculator assumes standard overtime pay of 1.5 times the hourly rate for hours worked beyond 40 in a week. Taxes and deductions are not included in the calculation.
Worked Example
Let's say you work 45 hours in a week at $15 per hour:
- Regular Hours: 40
- Overtime Hours: 5
- Regular Pay: 40 × $15 = $600
- Overtime Pay: 5 × ($15 × 1.5) = $112.50
- Total Earnings: $600 + $112.50 = $712.50
Using our calculator with these inputs would show you these results.
