To calculate the wage that an employee earns in a day when working from 7:00 AM to 7:00 PM, we need to consider both the regular hours and overtime hours. Here, the employee's workday is 12 hours long.

Daily Rate and Hourly Rate : The employee's daily rate is Php 675 for a regular workday of 8 hours. To find the hourly rate, we divide the daily rate by 8: Hourly Rate = 8 675 ​ = 84.375 Php per hour

Overtime Rate : Overtime is paid at 125% of the hourly rate. So the overtime hourly rate would be: Overtime Rate = 84.375 × 1.25 = 105.46875 Php per hour

Regular Hours Calculation : The regular work hours are 8 hours. Regular Pay = 8 × 84.375 = 675 Php

Overtime Hours Calculation : The remaining 4 hours are considered overtime. Overtime Pay = 4 × 105.46875 = 421.875 Php

Total Wage Calculation : Add the regular pay and the overtime pay together to find the total daily wage. Total Wage = 675 + 421.875 = 1 , 096.875 Php


Rounding this off to two decimal places gives us Php 1,096.88.
Thus, the wage David earns for the day is a. 1,096.88 .
