Formula Used

The calculator uses the following formulas to calculate your pay:

Gross Pay = (Regular Hours × Hourly Wage) + (Overtime Hours × (Hourly Wage × 1.5)) Net Pay = Gross Pay - Deductions

Where:

  • Regular Hours = Total hours worked at standard pay rate
  • Overtime Hours = Hours worked beyond standard hours (typically 40 hours per week)
  • Hourly Wage = Your standard pay rate per hour
  • Deductions = Any amounts withheld from your paycheck (taxes, insurance, etc.)

Worked Example

Let's look at an example to see how the calculator works:

Suppose you work 80 hours in two weeks at $15 per hour, with $200 in deductions. Here's how the calculation would work:

Regular Hours = 80 Overtime Hours = 0 (since 80 hours is 40 hours per week × 2 weeks) Hourly Wage = $15 Deductions = $200 Gross Pay = (80 × $15) + (0 × ($15 × 1.5)) = $1,200 + $0 = $1,200 Net Pay = $1,200 - $200 = $1,000

In this example, your gross pay would be $1,200 and your net pay would be $1,000 after deductions.
