At $46 an hour, every overtime hour pays $69.00. This page pre-computes the whole picture: overtime pay by hours, full-week gross at every common schedule, and a mini calculator for your own numbers.
At a regular rate of $46/hour, time and a half is $69.00/hour and double time is $92.00/hour. Federal law owes the time-and-a-half rate on every hour past 40 in a workweek (state daily rules in CA, AK, CO, NV and OR can owe it sooner). Full-time at $46 with no overtime is $1,840.00 a week, about $7,973.33 a month and $95,680.00 a year before taxes — the baseline every row below builds on.

Assumes all hours are paid at one rate and the week's first 40 hours are regular. If part of your week is paid at a differential or a second rate, your regular rate — and therefore your overtime rate — is higher; see the guide below.

Free — try it$46 × 1.5 = $69.00 per hour. You earn that rate for every overtime hour — federally, every hour past 40 in a workweek.
5 × $69.00 = $345.00 in overtime pay, on top of $1,840.00 regular pay for the first 40 hours — a 45-hour week grosses $2,185.00 before taxes.
$46 × 2 = $92.00 per hour. Double time is not required by federal law; it applies under California’s daily rules (past 12 hours in a day), some union contracts and many holiday policies.
It grosses $2,530.00 — $690.00 of that is overtime pay, and $230.00 of it is pure premium over straight time. Whether it is worth it depends on taxes and rest, but the premium part alone equals 5 extra straight-time hours.
