Labour

AAmrit4y ago
Last month an organisation's direct workers were paid $40,000 for normal working. In addition they were paid a total of $12,000 for overtime working. Overtime hours which were required due to a general shortage of labour were paid at time and a half. What was the total direct labour cost for last month? Sir Here My question is Does $40000 includes $8000 which we paid to employee during general shortage or not ..

No it does not. The question says that the amount paid for overtime working was in addition to the $40,000.
