Overtime and extra hours at $47.00
| Rate | Per hour | Per extra weekly hour, per year |
|---|---|---|
| Standard (1×) | $47.00 | $2,444 |
| Time and a half (1.5×) | $70.50 | $3,666 |
| Double time (2×) | $94.00 | $4,888 |
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.
