in the cell for the daily pay:
=if(hours8,((rate*1.5*(hours-8))+(rate*8)),rate*hours)

Basically, if you have more than 8 hours on clock, excell will calculate the
overtime hours at time and a half, then add pay for regular 8 hours, if there
are not more than 8 hours on the day, excell will calculate the regular pay
rate.

Substitute hours, rate for respective cell addresses.

Hello

Here's the time sheet I'm trying to create.



The standard hours of work are 8 hours per day and half an hour unpaid lunch
break



Operatives begin work at 8:00am and finish at 16:30 thus their 8 hour of
work. They are thus paid for 8 hours work.

However operatives rarely work a 40 hour week and so overtime kicks in.



For the following three hours they are paid at time and a half:

E.g.

8:00-16:30= 8 hours

8:00-19:30= 8 hours + 4.5 (3*1.5 been the time and a half component) =12.5
hours

Thereafter pay is double time

E.g.2

8:00-20:00= 8 hours +4.5 hours (3*1.5 hours) + 1 hour (0.5*2 been the double
time component) =13 hours



How can I create a formula whereby Excel will differentiate between the
different overtime rates once the 8 hour mark has been passed?



Currently my formula is set up like this, compliments of "Sajay":



D2=Time began E2= Time finished F3=Lunch break
G4=Hours worked

D3=8:00 E3=16:30
F3=00:30 =E3-D3-F3



G4 has been "Custom Formatted" to hh:mm


N.B Operatives may begin work at 7:00 working until 16:30. In this instance
their overtime rate would kick in at 15:30 and be paid time and a half for
the remaining hour.



Finally on the occasions where operatives work on a Saturday They are paid
at a rate of 1.5*hours worked for the first 5 hours and then double time
thereafter



On a Sunday it is straightforward 2*hours.



Your help would be greatly appreciated



Kind regards
