If you take unpaid time off, lower the number of paid weeks. Overtime usually pays 1.5 times your regular rate for hours over 40 a week for non-exempt employees.
From gross to take-home pay
These numbers are gross pay. Federal and state income taxes, Social Security, Medicare and benefit deductions reduce your take-home pay. See gross vs net income to understand the difference, and use take-home pay for your budget.
