How this calculator works
Total pay = regular hours × rate + overtime hours × rate × multiplier.
Worked example
40 regular hours and 5 overtime hours at $25/hour with a 1.5× premium equals $1,187.50.
How to interpret the result
The primary result is gross pay before deductions. The separate regular and overtime values make it easier to audit the arithmetic, but they do not determine whether the entered hours legally qualify for overtime or whether a different regular-rate calculation applies.
