Erica is a police officer. She earns $24 an hour. Sometimes she works extra shifts and earns time and a half for each hour she works over 40. Erica is paid biweekly. Last week she worked 44 hours and this week she worked 52 hours. Calculate Erica's Gross Pay

Gross pay = $2496

Step-by-step explanation:

Erica earns $24 an hour. She works extra shifts and earns time and a half for each hour.

Her extra earning starts over 40 hours.

Therefore, her extra earning above 40 hours = 1.5 × 24

                                                                           = $36 per hour

She worked for 44 hours in last week, her total earnings for last week

= (40 × $24) + (4 × $36)

= 960 + 144

= $1104

She worked for 52 hours this week, her total earnings for this week

= (40 × $24) + (12 × $36)

= 960 + 432

= $1392

Since, Erica was paid biweekly,

Her gross income = $1104 + $1392

                              = $2496
