Do Now John is a sales associate at a retail furniture store. He is paid $7.50 per hour. This week he works 22 hours. Last week he worked 26 hours. He earned $95 in commissions from his sales. He is paid bi-weekly. Is John entitled to overtime? What is John’s straight-time pay? What is John’s gross pay for the two week period?
Solution No, he is not entitled to overtime pay, since his hours did not exceed 40 in a single work week. Straight-time pay = $7.50 x (22+26) = $360 Gross Pay = $360 + $95 commission = $455
