Before you accept the number

  • Overtime is normally paid at 1.5× the base rate, so the same job at 45 hours a week is worth $312.44 for those extra hours.
  • Unpaid lunch breaks are not part of a 40-hour week: a 30-minute break every day brings the paid year down by roughly 4%.
  • The annual figure above is gross pay. Federal income tax, FICA and any state tax come out of it before the money reaches your account.
