Formulas

100

What formula would you use if you want your total pay and you have your hourly rate and the total number of hours worked?

Straight time pay = hourly rate x hours worked

200

How would you rearrange the overtime payment formula to find how many overtime hours were worked?

h =     overtime pay   /         (hourly rate x overtime rate)

300

How would you find Straight time pay if you know your overtime pay and Total pay?

STP = TP - OTP

400

How would you find the overtime hours worked if you know your hourly rate, overtime rate and overtime pay?

OT pay / (OT rate x hourly rate) = overtime hours

500

How would you rearrange the Total Pay formula to solve for your hourly rate if you know your total pay, overtime rate, your overtime hours, and your regular hours worked?

Total Pay = $1500,  OT rate = 1.5,  OT hours = 6,  regular hours = 40

1500 = (h x 1.5) x 6 + (h x 40)

1500 = 9h + 40h

1500 = 49h

h = 30.61 hours
