For example, where the applicable minimum wage is $7.25 and the employer is paying a direct cash wage of $2.13:
;$7.25 x 1.5 = $10.88 (time and a half);
;$7.25 – $2.13 = $5.12 (this is the tip credit);
;$10.88 – $5.12 = $5.76 (this is the overtime rate for this tipped employee);
;All hours worked must be paid at $7.25 per hour + any overtime hours paid at an additional $5.76 per hour.;
This assumes the employee earned enough tips to equal at least $5.12 per hour.
