I'm thinking this is a pretty easy one.

I am doing a new schedule at work and if the total number of hours in a work week are greater than 80, then it will need to be calculated with overtime.

basically what I am trying to think of is; the result is 84, then 80*x=y, then the 4 remaining hours would be 4*1.5x=w, then add them together to get a total, y+w=total earnings

anything over 80 would be time and one half.

I am using this formula to count the days worked, 1 being first shift and 2 being second shift; =(SUM(COUNTIF(I13:V13,{1,2}))*12)
 

Excel Facts

Control Word Wrap
Press Alt+Enter to move to a new row in a cell. Lets you control where the words wrap.
The 12 would be hours worked in a day, 12 hour shift. 3 on, 3 off for a two week pay period would put you at 84 hours.

Didn't you say total number of hours in a week? Does nobody ever do overtime on a workday ie 14 hour shift for example?

There will be an "X" representing a day off.

i was using, =(SUM(COUNTIF(I13:V13,{1,2}))*12)*A3
A3 would contain your hourly wage. But it wont be accurate since there is 4 hours of overtime.

If normal hrs are 80 per week, will you need to split the countif, so if they work 84 in one week, then 76 in 2nd week, will that be 4hrs O/T and 156hrs normal?

I must of made a slight mistake. It would be 84 hours in a pay period. a pay period consist of two weeks. The total hours in the pay period would be 84, from which i got from =(SUM(COUNTIF(I13:V13,{1,2}))*12)


anything over 80 hours I will need to multiply 1.5 times the base wage

so 84 hours
80*x=y
(4*x)*1.5=w
y+w=total earnings
