Overtime and extra hours at $50.00
| Rate | Per hour | Per extra weekly hour, per year |
|---|---|---|
| Standard (1×) | $50.00 | $2,600 |
| Time and a half (1.5×) | $75.00 | $3,900 |

Extra hours are taxed at your marginal rate, not your average rate, so the take-home from overtime is lower than your usual hourly net, but overtime never pushes the tax on your existing pay higher.
