No, Mr.Evans will make under $400. His base pay, 9.20 times the hours he worked at regular pay(40) would equal $368. Now, take those extra 2.25 hours he worked at 1.5 times his base pay of 9.20, which would give you $13.80. Now, multiply 13.80 and 2.25, and you get 31.05. These two amount added, would equal $399.05, leaving Mr. Evans at just under $400 earned that week.
