I am applying for a job that pays $16.00 per hour, plus 5 hours of overtime every 2 weeks. I live in California, where overtime is 1.5 times the regular rate of pay after you work 8 hours a day. What would the gross annual salary be with all the overtime hours added in?

From Josh:
A sales rep for a drug company is paid on the following scale. His base salary is $1600 per month. He is also paid a commission of 2% of sales over $20,000. When his gross sales reach $30,000 he is then paid 4% on the amount above that until his sales reach $50,000 after which point his commission becomes 6%. His commission reaches 8% when his sales total goes over $100,000 for the month. Set up a piecewise function for the information above.

Real Pay |
2005-11-07 |
|
From Judy:
Is there a formula for computing "real pay"? Example - you are offered a position in your home town for $A, and another position in another town for $B. To work at $B job there would be so many hours in commute time involved (z), and a real daily commute cost (either train, bus, or auto mileage-wear, etc.) (x). How would you calculate the real pay of job $B in relation to job $A?

Working on commission |
2001-02-17 |
|
From Jay:
Ron the realtor is offered a job directly out of real-estate school. He has a choice as to which way he will receive his salary the first year.
Salary Plan 1: He would receive a base pay of $2000 per month plus a 3% commission on each sale.
Salary Plan 2: No base pay but a 6% commission on each sale.
Write an equation to determine when it would be better to switch from the first plan to the second plan. Give a one- or two-sentence answer that includes Ron`s sales in a month. Round to the nearest dollar, if necessary.
