Question: Labor cost, overtime, and idle time. David Letterman works in the production department of Northeast Plastics (NEP) as a machine operator. David, a long-time employee of NEP, is paid on an hourly basis at a rate of $24 per hour. David works five 8-hour shifts per week Monday-Friday (40 hours). Any time David works over and above these 40 hours is considered overtime for which he is paid at a rate of time and a half ($36 per hour). If the overtime falls on weekends, David is paid at a rate of double time ($48 per hour). David is also paid an additional $24 per hour for any holidays worked, even if it is part of his regular 40 hours. David is paid his regular wages even if the machines are down (not operating) due to regular machine maintenance, slow order periods, or unexpected mechanical problems. These hours are considered "idle time." During December David worked the following hours:
