How to Calculate Your Total Pay Per Minute with Penalties

The total pay you receive can be calculated by considering your hourly rate, the number of minutes worked, and any penalties incurred. The formula to determine your total pay is as follows:

Total Pay Calculation:

§§ \text{Total Pay} = \left( \frac{\text{Hourly Rate}}{60} \times \text{Minutes Worked} \right) - \left( \text{Penalty Per Minute} \times \text{Penalty Minutes} \right) §§

where:

  • § \text{Total Pay} § — the final amount you will receive
  • § \text{Hourly Rate} § — your pay rate per hour
  • § \text{Minutes Worked} § — the total minutes you worked
  • § \text{Penalty Per Minute} § — the amount deducted for each penalty minute
  • § \text{Penalty Minutes} § — the total minutes for which penalties are applied

Example Calculation

  1. Hourly Rate (§ \text{Hourly Rate} §): $20
  2. Minutes Worked (§ \text{Minutes Worked} §): 30
  3. Penalty Per Minute (§ \text{Penalty Per Minute} §): $1
  4. Penalty Minutes (§ \text{Penalty Minutes} §): 5

Total Pay Calculation:

§§ \text{Total Pay} = \left( \frac{20}{60} \times 30 \right) - \left( 1 \times 5 \right) = 10 - 5 = 5 §§

Thus, your total pay would be $5.
