Formula Used
Time Card Calculation Formula
The total earnings are calculated using the following formula:
Total Earnings = (Regular Hours × Hourly Wage) + (Overtime Hours × (Hourly Wage × Overtime Rate))
Where the Overtime Rate is typically 1.5 times the regular hourly wage.
This formula accounts for both regular and overtime hours, providing an accurate summary of your earnings for the pay period.
Worked Example
Let's walk through an example to see how the calculator works.
Suppose you work 40 regular hours and 5 overtime hours at an hourly wage of $20.
- Regular Pay = 40 hours × $20/hour = $800
- Overtime Pay = 5 hours × ($20/hour × 1.5) = 5 × $30 = $150
- Total Earnings = $800 + $150 = $950
Using our calculator with these values would show $950 as the total earnings.
