Question

Rebecca Huang receives a regular salary of $2,600 a month and is paid 1/2 times the regular hourly rate for hours worked in excess of 40 per week.
a. Calculate Huang's overtime rate of pay.
22.5 overtime pay per hour
s
b. Calculate Huang's total gross weekly pay if she works 43 hours during the week.

Answer 1

The over time rate of pay is $22.5 overtime per hour. While the total gross pay at 43 hours is 667.5 dollars.

a. The regular salary = $2600 monthly

The annual salary = $2600 * 12

= 31200 dollars.

The weekly salary in a year

We have 52  weeks in a year

Weekly salary = 31200/52

= 600 dollars.

She works for 40 hours weekly.

Pay per hour = 600/40

= 15

The overtime pay per hour that Rebecca receives

$15*1\frac{1}{2}$

= 15 * 1.5

= 22.5

Therefore Huang's overtime pay is 22.5 dollars.

b. If she works 43 hours during the week

15 dollars * 40 hours = 600 dollars

43-40 = 3 overtime hours

3 x 22.50 per hour = 67.5 dollars.

The total gross wages = 600 dollars + 67.5 dollars

= 667.5 dollars.
