The first day of work for Prevosti Farms and Sugarhouse for all employees is February 6, 2017. February 10 is the end of the first pay period and includes work completed during the week of February 6–10. Compute the employee gross pay using 40 hours as the standard workweek for all employees except Mary Shangraw, who works 20 hours per week and receives overtime for any time worked past that point. The other hourly employees receive overtime pay when they work more than 35 hours in one week. Joel Schwartz has made $4,400 in case sales at a 3 percent commission rate during this pay period. Remember that the employees are paid biweekly. Note that the first pay period comprises only one week of work, but the pay frequency for federal income tax purposes is biweekly.
The hours for the nonexempt employees are as follows:
Name Hourly rate Hours worked
2/6–2/10
Towle $11.20000 35 hours
