Hello,

I am having trouble with an if statement that calculates pay rates. The
rules are the first 20 hours are straight time, the next 10 (Between 20 and
30 hours) are at 1.5 times the hourly rate, then anything over 30 hours is 2
times the hourly rate. I am obvoiusly multiplying all of my hours here by
it's hourly rate times 2 - I just can't seem to fit it all in without adding
additional coulmns.

Start timeStop timeHrly rateHours worked Gross payCorrect Answer
7:00 22:57 10.75 39:57 $859.14 $590.39Any Suggestions?

Thank you,

Denise

One way:

=MIN(20,Hours)*Rate MIN(MAX(Hours-20,0),10)*Rate*1.5 MAX(Hours-30,0)*Rate*2
