Question

James, who works as an accountant, is paid for overtime. Last week he worked 11,9,8,8 and 8 hours respectively on his weekdays. How much was he paid for this week if he is paid 1.5 times his regular rate when he is working longer than 8 hours on any day? His pay per hour is $9.6

Answer 1

441.60

Explanation:

4 hours of 1.5 times is 38.40 + 19.20=57.60

40 hours at 9.60 = 384

384+ 57.60== 441.60
