Worked out from 29 U.S.C. 207(a)(1) (Fair Labor Standards Act) - not less than one and one-half times the regular rate for hours over forty in a workweek; the source of the 40-hour and 1.5x defaults and 2 other sources.
Overtime entitlement depends on your jurisdiction, your exempt/non-exempt status and any collective agreement. This tool applies the thresholds and multipliers you enter; it does not decide which ones the law requires of you.

How this is worked out

5 steps
  1. Straight-time hours = min(45, 40) = 40 h in the week
  2. Regular pay = 40 x 20 = 800
  3. Overtime hours = 5 h at 20 x 1.5 = 30 per hour
  4. Overtime pay = 5 x 30 = 150
  5. Total gross pay = 950
