$359.50
$823.50
$798.25
Answer: (D) $798.25
Explanation:
Information Given: Base Pay Rate = $15.50 per hour ; Double- time for holidays ; with overtime pay of time-and -a-half. Total hours worked 38.5 hours Monday to Saturday, and holiday hours worked 6.5 hours.
Calculation of Gross Pay :
Normal Pay = $15.50 x 38.5 hours
Holiday Pay = (6.5 hours x 2 ) x $15.5 (Holiday pay is Double-time )
Total Gross Pay = Normal Pay + Holiday Pay
= ( $15.5 x 38.5) + [(6.5 x 2)] x $15.5
= $596.75 + (13 x $15.50)
= $596.75 + $201.50
= $798.25
Total Gross Pay = $798.25
So the Correct Option is (D) $798.25
