Overtime calculator with taxes and pay breakdown
The math is simple once you know your state's threshold and multiplier. Here's the full breakdown.
Find your overtime rate
Multiply your regular hourly rate by the overtime multiplier. US federal default is 1.5× (time and a half). Example: $15.00 × 1.5 = $22.50/hr overtime rate.
Multiply by overtime hours
Take your overtime rate and multiply by hours worked past the threshold. Example: $22.50/hr × 8 OT hours = $180 overtime pay.
Add your regular pay
Regular pay = 40 hours × base rate. Add both for your total gross. Example: $600 regular + $180 overtime = $780 total.
