    OT rate = $37.20

    Total earnings = $1,252.40

    Explanation:

    If the company does not provide any overtime rate policy, the over time rate should be minimum 1.5 times the hourly rate.

    Therefore, Overtime rate = $24.80 * 1.5 = $37.20

    Total earnings = Gross salary + Overtime salary

    Hourly salary = $24.80

    Total normal hours = 40 hours

    Total gross salary = $24.80 * 40 = $992

    Total overtime = Mandatory training session + Travelling for company

    Total overtime = 4 hours + 3 hours = 7 hours (Sunday noon means 12 pm to 3 pm, total 3 additional hours)

    OT salary = $37.2 * 7 hours = $260.40

    Total earnings = $992 + $260.40 = $1,252.40
