Answer:

1) $736

2) $24

3) Total compensation for direct labor = $736 -$24 = $712

    Overhead = $24

Explanation:

(1) Normal wages for the week = Normal hours * normal hourly rates

    = 40 hours * $16 per hour = $640

Overtime hours = Total time - Normal hours = 44 - 40

= 4 hours

overtime wages = overtime hours * overtime hourly rates

    = 4 hours * $24 = $96

Operators compensation for the week = $640 + $96

= $ 736

(2) Employee's total overtime premium

= (overtime rate - normal time rate) * (Total hours - normal hours)

= ($24 - $16) *(44 - 40)

= ($8) * (4)

=$24

(3) Total compensation for direct labor = $736 -$24 = $712

Overhead = $24

1. The computation of the loom operator's compensation for the week is $736 ($16 x 40 + $24 x 4).

2. The calculation of the employee's total overtime premium for the week is $32 ($8 x 4).

3. The amount of the employee's total compensation for the week that is direct-labor cost is $704 ($16 x 44).

4) The amount of the employee's total compensation for the week that is overhead is $32 ($8 x 4).

Data and Calculations:

Earnings per hour = $16

Overtime rate = $24

Overtime premium = $8 ($24 - $16)

Number of hours worked = 44 hours

Normal work hours = 40 hours

Thus, loom operator earns a total of $736 per week with an overtime premium of $32.
