Question

For the second week of June, Kevin Adams worked 46 hours. Kevin earns $18.40 an hour. His employer pays overtime for all hours worked in excess of 40 hours per week and pays 1.5 times the hourly rate for overtime hours. Calculate the following for the second week of June (round your responses to the nearest cent if necessary):

Answer 1

Answer:

$165.60 overtime money only

$736 regular time only

added together (gross income)

$901.60

Step-by-step explanation:

• 46hrs
• 18.40 an hr
• hrs over 40 = overtime= *1.5

To figure out if there is any overtime here, we subtract.

46-40= 6hrs of overtime

To figure out the amount of cash gained for regular time, we multiply.

40*18.40 = 736

----------------

We need to know how much money is paid per overtime hour.

18.40*1.5 = 27.60

To figure out the amount of cash gained during overtime, we multiply.

6*27.60 = 165.60

add for gross income (total earnings)

165.60+736 = 901.60
