Computation of Total Earnings:

Total Earnings = Piece Rate Earnings + Overtime Earnings

Here,

Piece Rate Earnings = Units Produced*Piece Rate per Unit = 5,520 units*$0.10 = $552

Overtime Earnings = Overtime Hours Worked * Overtime Hourly Rate = (46 hours - 40 hours)*(($552/46 hours)*0.50)

= 6 hours*$6 = $36

 

Total Earnings = $552 + $36 = $588
