Al's gross pay is calculated by adding his regular pay, overtime pay, and differential pay. Regular pay for 80 hours (72 warehouse + 8 QA) is 80 * $12.75 = $1,020. Overtime pay for 4 hours (72 - 40 + 12 - 8) is 4 * $12.75 * 1.5 = $76.50. Differential pay for 12 QA hours is 12 * $12.75 * 0.15 = $22.95. Total gross pay is $1,020 + $76.50 + $22.95 = $1,119.45.
