    Calculating time/overtime/rates for employees - sheet attached

    Hi,
    I have a problem and I'm hoping you can help.

    1) At my workplace, people work all sorts of different hours. I need to be able to calculate how many hours someone worked in a day easily in column H. I have a comment in.
    2) If someone works more than 12 hours in a day, they get time & a half - so if the normal rate is $26.44 and they worked 13 hours, 1 hour of that would need to be 1*0.5*26.44 and 12 of that would need to be 12*26.44 - how do I get it to do that in column I?
    3) If someone works more than 40 hours total in a week, that difference needs to get calculated as overtime. So if someone worked 56 hours in a week, 16*0.5*26.44 and 40*26.44 would be what needs to happen in wages - column J.

    Could you please help? I'm attaching my sheet with notes & please let me know if anything is unclear.

    TL;DR - See Attachment.

    Column H can be simplified as:

    For column I do:

    Column J can be simplified as:

    In the attached I changed your layout to show SUMs at the bottom of the table then added in a Weekly Overtime line-item to show additional wages.

    The formula to calclulate weekly OT hours is:

    The formula to calculate weekly OT Wages is:

    Then the Total Wages is just the SUM of column J (Wages) and the calc of Weekly OT Wages.

    Note: All of the above assumes that there are two types of OT, Daily and Weekly, and both count. If Daily OT is disregarded when the weekly total is over 40, then Column J formula needs to be this:

    I made a couple of adjustments to the post and file. I hoped to do it before you checked the thread, but I see from your profile that you viewed the thread sometime after I made the post but before I made the final edit. Please double-check the workbook and formulas.

    The biggest adjustment was an accidental double-dip on Weekly OT hours.

    Looks like you beat me to the punch Whizbang. Good on ya.

    Dawsonsoo, I did want to point out however. Double check your overtime payment calculations. The OT rate should be calculated as "OT hours*1.5" not "OT hours*0.5. By multiplying by 1.5, the employee is receiving time and a half for each OT hour.

    You can do it either way

    (All hours worked * Rate) + (OT Hours * (Rate * .5))

    (Regular Hours * Rate) + (OT Hours * (Rate * 1.5))
