Overtime and extra hours at $24.00

RatePer hourPer extra weekly hour, per year
Standard (1×)$24.00$1,248
Time and a half (1.5×)$36.00$1,872
Double time (2×)$48.00$2,496

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.
