The normal operating hours for all employees is 38 hrs per week and all staff are paid a a basic rate of $5 per hour. Overtime hours are paid a the basic rate +50%. During a particular week all employees worked for 44 hours to meet the company’s general production requirements.
What amount would be charged to production overhead?
A. $300
B. $450
C. $2350
D. $2650I was told that u add the direct labour and indirect labour to arrive at your gross wages. Is this correct? I’m confused!!
Why in OT pay u add 4+4 in the bracket? Does that stand for the 4 weeks and the basic rate?
A company operates a factory which employs 40 direct workers throughout the 4 week period just ended. Direct employees were paid at a basic rate of $4.00 per hour for a 38 hour week. Total hours of the direct workers in the 4 week period were 6528. Overtime which is paid at a premium of 35% is worked in order to meet general production requirements. Employee deductions total 30% of gross wages. 188 hours of direct workers time were registered as idle. Calculate:
1.Gross pay
2.Deductions
3.Net wages
4.Direct labour
4.Indirect labour
