Question 848322: last week josie worked 45 hours at her job. Her regular hourly rate is $10. Her employer pays time-and-a-half for overtime. What was Josies gross pay last week? Answer by swincher4391(1107) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Assume that any hours worked over 40 is time and a half.
Pay earned at regular time: 40*10 = 400
Pay earned at time-and-a-half: 5*(10*1.5) = 5* 15 = 75
Gross pay: 400+75 = 475
