Question

How to write a Python program to solve a simple payroll calculation?  Calculate the amount of pay, given hours worked, and hourly rate.

Answer 1

hours = float(input("Hours Worked: "))
rate = float(input("Hourly Rate of Pay: "))
pay = 0
if hours > 40:
    pay = (40 * rate) + ((hours - 40) * 1.5 * rate)
else:
    pay = hours * rate
print("Total Gross Pay: $%.2f"%pay)

hours = float(input("Hours Worked: "))
rate = float(input("Hourly Rate of Pay: "))
pay = hours * rate
print("Total Gross Pay: $%.2f"%pay)
