How it works
Divide your tips for the period by the hours you worked to get tips per hour. Add that to your base wage per hour.
Enter the tips you keep, after any share that is passed on. Then the result shows what you actually earn.
Worked example
A base wage of $2.13 an hour plus $6.00 in tips per hour, over 30 hours, is $8.13 an hour, or $243.90 for the period.
Questions
Is the base wage the same everywhere?
No. Many places set a lower cash wage for tipped staff, so check the minimum for your state or city and your job.
Are tips taxed?
Tips you report are generally treated as wages for tax purposes. This shows figures before tax.
What if my tips change each week?
Use a typical week, or add up several weeks and divide by their total hours for a steadier figure.
