Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Josef's regular pay for working 46 hours would be:

$20/hour x 40 regular hours = $800

His overtime pay would be:

$20/hour x 1.5 overtime rate x 6 overtime hours = $180

Adding his regular and overtime pay:

$800 + $180 = $980 (his gross pay for the week)

Therefore, the statement is true.
