Member previewVariant 5 · 3 implementations · 8 checks per implementation

Case contract

Input {federal, state|None, local|None, age, days_employed, hours, paid}. Applicable rate is the highest of the defined federal, state and local minimums. A youth rate of 4.25 may replace it when age < 20, days_employed <= 90 and neither a state nor local minimum is defined. Return [rate, max(0, hours*rate - paid)].

Why this case matters

Payroll must pay the most protective minimum wage, and the youth rate exception is narrow.
