Formula Used

The time card calculator uses the following formulas to calculate your earnings:

Regular Earnings = Hourly Rate × Regular Hours Overtime Earnings = Hourly Rate × Overtime Hours × Overtime Rate Total Earnings = Regular Earnings + Overtime Earnings

Where:

  • Hourly Rate is your pay per hour.
  • Regular Hours are the standard hours worked in a week.
  • Overtime Hours are the additional hours worked beyond the regular hours.
  • Overtime Rate is the multiplier applied to overtime hours (typically 1.5 or 2 times the hourly rate).

Worked Example

Let's walk through an example to see how the time card calculator works.

Suppose you have an hourly rate of $20, worked 40 regular hours, and 5 overtime hours with an overtime rate of 1.5 times your hourly rate.

Regular Earnings = $20 × 40 = $800 Overtime Earnings = $20 × 5 × 1.5 = $150 Total Earnings = $800 + $150 = $950

Using the calculator, you would enter $20 in the "Hourly Rate" field, 40 in the "Regular Hours" field, and 5 in the "Overtime Hours" field. Clicking "Calculate" will display your total earnings of $950.
