2. A regular work week is 40 hours. Overtime pay is time and one-half (T+). [10 Marks]a) Amukoshi drives a truck for N$16,50 an hour. If he works 52 hours, what would his gross earnings be for one week?

Answer 1

find overtime hours:

52-40 = 12

Multiply regular hours by rate:

40 x 16.50 = 660

Multiply rate by 1.5 x overtime hours:

16.50 x 1.5 x 12 = 297

Total = 660 + 297 = 957

Total = $957
