1. What is Annual Pay With Overtime?

Annual pay with overtime is the total compensation an employee earns in a year, including both regular wages and overtime pay. Overtime is typically paid at a higher rate (often 1.5x the regular rate) for hours worked beyond the standard work week.

2. How Does the Calculator Work?

The calculator uses the following equation:

Where:

• \( Base\,Rate \) — Regular hourly wage ($/hour)
• \( Regular\,Hours \) — Standard hours worked per week
• \( Overtime\,Rate \) — Hourly wage for overtime hours
• \( Overtime\,Hours \) — Extra hours worked per week
• \( Weeks \) — Number of weeks worked per year

Explanation: The calculation accounts for both regular pay and the additional compensation earned through overtime work.

3. Importance of Calculating Annual Pay

Details: Understanding your total annual compensation helps with financial planning, budgeting, and comparing job offers. It's especially important for employees who regularly work overtime.

4. Using the Calculator

Tips: Enter your regular hourly rate, typical weekly hours, overtime rate (usually 1.5x regular rate), typical overtime hours, and number of weeks worked per year (usually 52 for full-time).
