This is I what I learn on the last Friday in our class, we finish wages and salaries and we're moving to the next lesson. the lesson is about the spreadsheet but before we start that, mr kuropatwa gave us a test paper to answer but that's not a quiz. its about the spread sheet. that test paper is about how to follow and understand the question carefully. The question in the paper is so hard and very tricky for some of us. mr kuropatwa gave us a half hour to answer the question. Then after that, mr kuropatwa show us how its work. This question is related to our next lesson because help us how to follow and understand the question carefully.in spreadsheet, you just not add the number you can see there, you must understand the question first before you answer it. And that test Mr. Kuropatwa, He said read all the question after you answer, that's all I learn on the last Friday.
The next describe is Melchor

I learn the other is how to find the wages and salaries, it sound hard when firts studied it. but its not, If you atten in class irregular,that will be really hard, so I'am attending the class regular,so I its not hard for me and i learn this lesson very well because I attentd the class regularand especially the technique and style of teaching of Mr. kuropatwa.
In this lesson,I leanr lots of things ang technique for example: find the gross pay of a works work 46 hours this week. he paid doble time for every overtime he work. His regular hours per week is 40 hour and He paid $8.00 per hours.
* find the over time hours by subtracting the Total hours to the Regular hours 46 hour - 40 hour =6 hour (overtime pay)
* find the over time pay by multiplying the overtime hours to overtime rate and to wage
6 hours times 2 tmes $ 8.00 =$96.00 (overtime pay)
* find the regular pay by multiplying the regular hours to waege
40 hours times $ 8.00=320(regular pay )
* then last add the overtime pay and regular pay to get the total gross pay $320.00 add to
$96.oo=$ 416.00 this is the <total grosspay >

This is my Blogging on Bogging, in our last lesson about wages and salaries; I learn a lot of things. for example: how much money a worker earn if she/hi work in this hours: M-9, T-9, W-8, TH-7, F-10 and his/her wages per hour is $12.00
Solution:
* add all the hours
9+9+8+7+10 = 43 hours
* multiply the total hours to the wages per hour
$12.00x43 hours=$516.00
then the total salaries that the worker eared is $516.00
This lesson in wage and salaries is really gonna help us in our day to day especially the working student.

In our lesson, we didn't do mental math as we usually do instead Mr. K group us into six group. Then Mr. K gave us a problem to solve. The question is about finding the new salary if a worker get a percent rise or a dollar rise in a regular wage,and which option is better take, for example:
The manager give the employee a two option to choose to rise their regular hourly wage, first option, additional $3.00 for every hours a worker work and the second option is 25% rise of their regular wage every hour. The worker regular wage per hour is $10.00.Which option should a worker take to rise his regular wage more higher?
solution:
option 1
hourly wage + additional pay= new hourly wage
$10.00 + $3.00= $13.00
option 2
percent rise/100%= decimal answer
25%/100%= 0.25
(decimals)(hourly wage)=additional pay
0.25 x $10.00= $2.50
hourly wage + additional pay=new hourly wage
$10.00+ $2.50= $12.50
The worker should choose the first option because his regular hourly wage rise $3.00 than the second option that only rise by $2.50.
goodluck in the test!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yesterday in class we basically left off where we started.. We are now learning about payroll deductions. First we started off with the CPP, EI, and also the Income taxes. and now we are adding other things like insurances, dental plans, and union dues. for example when you have union dues they don't get taxed. Just as we did the other day.. Here's an example:
Find Al Passey's net pay for the week. His claim code is 7, his weekly salary is $385.00, and he pays union dues of $3.80, a dental plan premium of $1.85, and the usual CPP, EI, and income tax deductions. He is paid weekly.
gross: $385.00
CPP - $15.73
EI - $6.93
(gross pay)$385.00 - $3.80(union dues) = $381.20
Federal Tax - 0
Provincial Tax - $2.65
Dental Plan - $1.85
$15.73 + $6.93 + $2.65 + $1.85 = $27.16
$385.00 - $27.16 = $357.84
note: the union dues didn't count for the federal tax and the provincial tax

Hello, today we have learned about different kinds of deductions not all deductions are taxable the one that Mr. Kuropatwa taught us is the union dues deduction when were getting the EI(Employment Insurance) and CPP(Canada Pension Plan) we use the gross pay and when were getting the Federal Tax and Provincial Tax were gonna deduct the non taxable deduction like the union dues to the gross pay and we gonna get the "Taxable Income" and this is what were going to use to get the Federal Tax and Provincial Tax.
Good Afternoon... =)

Hello, sorry if i misspelt some words, i can't type on this computer well. Its slow, so anyways.
Everything we've learned about wages and salaries are kind of easy to me.
Finding the gross pay by multiplying how many hours you worked and your regular hourly pay.
Gross pay = (Regular Hourly Pay) (Hours you worked)
Ex.
Gross pay = ($9.00) (40) = $ 360.00
Then it gets more specific if you worked more hours than usual. Then you have to figure out their overtime hours, then their overtime pay. After you figure out those two, then you have to find your regular hours and your regular pay. After all of that, you add the overtime pay and the regular pay.
Step 1
Add all the hours together
Step 2
Figure out your overtime hours (Subtract total hours by your regular hours)
Step 3
Overtime pay = (wage)(Overtime hours)(overtime rate)
Step 3
Regular pay = (wage)(regular hour)
Step 4
Gross Pay = Overtime pay + Regular Pay
Ex.
Chang M.
M-10 T-7 W-8 TH-8.5 F-9
Hourly Wage $7.65
Earns time and a half if they work more than 40 hours.
1. 10+7+8+8.5+9 = 42.5 of hours
2. 42.5 - 40 = 2. 5 overtime hours
3. ($7.65) (2.5) (1.5) = $28.69 overtime pay
4. ($7.65) (40) = $306.00 regular pay
5. $28.69 + 306.00 = $334.69 Gross pay
Pretty simple right? Sometimes its 'double pay' instead of 'time and a half'. Just read questions carefully.
Then we learned about using timecards. The first time, i had a difficult time, but i understood after one whole class and did the questions that were from homework and the example from the smartboard.
Sometimes when your a minute late to work, you get 1 quarter(.25) taken away from your pay. Also, pretend your late 16 minutes, then it would be half (.5) taken away. And so on..
I found it alot easier if you keep practicing on the questions that you have most difficult. For me, I'm still rusty on my timecards. But if i keep practicing the questions all over. It would be easy for me at the end.
Remember everyone, do your homework. =)
Also! Good Luck on the test =)

I thought our last unit on "wages and salaries", was basically knowing how to multiply numbers together to get a final answer. At first, i found it confusing to figure out the gross pay after someone has worked overtime because of their overtime rate, which was either 1.5 (time and a half) or 2 (double time), depending on how much their employer pays them for working extra hours. To me it was simple to calculate the gross pay after i memorized a formula for each scenario.
GROSS PAY ( without overtime ) = total hours x hourly rate
GROSS PAY ( OT - time & a half ) = total hours x hourly rate x 1.5
GROSS PAY ( OT - double time ) = total hours x hourly rate x 2
In the beginning, i kept forgetting to multiply the total hours and the hourly rate by either 1.5 or 2, to get the total pay or gross pay including overtime pay, but after practicing and doing my homework, i got the hang of it. Something i found difficult was calculating time on time cards, and i don't think i'm the only one. I think a few of us had a hard time, 'cause we were used to calculating from 100 instead of 60. I had no problems with hours that ended in 00, 15, 30, or 45, what i had trouble with was hours that started or ended in odd numbers like 07, or 39 for example, but after Mr. K. did a few questions with us in class and showed us multiple ways to find the total hours, i understood it better and found it easier to do. The strategy i found easiest to use is when you begin with the starting time, find out how many minutes it is until the following hour, then use the following hour, and figure out how many hours is between it and the last hour worked, then i take the last hour and find how much time is between it and the last minute worked.
FOR EXAMPLE:
If someone works from 8:07 AM to 11:59 AM, I'd find out the answer like this..
8:07 AM - 9:00 AM = 53 mins.
9:00 AM - 11:00 AM = 2 hrs.
11:00 AM - 11:59 AM = 59mins.
...53 mins
...02 hrs
+ 59 mins
02 hrs & 112 mins
since 112 mins. is more than an hour, you deduct 60 (an hour) from it, and get 52 remaining minutes, and since you subtracted 60 mins from 112 mins, don't forget to add that 1 hr to the 2 hrs you already had. Thus, our answer becomes 3 hrs & 52 mins, if I'm not mistaken.

This is my BOB. I'm not sure whether we're supposed to answer all the questions or not, so here I go. I think everyone will agree with me when I say that the rapid math tricks we've learned have made math a lot easier. Knowing me, I am not good at mental math but thankfully Mr.Kuropatwa taught us the 'shortcut'. One of the things I found difficult at the beginning was keeping "track of time" only because I wasn't sure what it meant by "quarter" of an hour and so forth. I get it now because I kind of looked at it the way I would look at money, because a quarter of a dollar is $0.75, and a quarter of an hour is .75 also. This is the end of my blog, enjoy!

Today we learned about different tax fees from a booklet and these different tax fees that we have discussed are:
1. CPP ( Canada Pension Plan )
2. EI ( Employment Insurance )
3. Federal Taxes
4. Provincial taxes
These tax fees are to be found in the book which tells you the amount of tax added to the money. One more thing that Mr K. explained well is that some of the taxes like in federal and provincial taxes, there are differences in some the pages which says on the left/right top corner of the booklet saying " Biweekly " and " Weekly ". Also, you need to know which column of the following tax i being asked. that's what i have learned in todays class. Nightz people .. =)

In the lesson, Wages and Salaries, I have learned quite a bit of things I never knew before. "Multiplying Teens" was one of the tricks that interested me. I didn't know that the answer could be found in the question, which was pretty cool. One part of this lesson I found confusing was figuring out the hours a person worked, if the time wasn't precise. But, we worked more on this in class and I could say I improved on it. I feel that I have learned a lot in this lesson, but, I could still do much better.
