  1. Reporting pay
  2. Hazard pay
  3. Gross pay
  4. Base pay

Answer(s): A

Explanation:

Answer option A is correct. If an employee is called by the employer for work and there is no work available, the employer may be required by state law or employment agreements to pay for a minimum number of hours of work. This is known as reporting pay. Answer option B is incorrect. Hazard pay is additional pay for working in dangerous conditions. Answer option C is incorrect. Gross pay is the amount earned by an employee before taxes are not paid. Answer option D is incorrect. Base pay is the foundation of an employer's compensation program because it reflects the value placed on individual jobs by the organization.

An employee earning $22, 500 per year supervises three employees and spends 35 hours per week on essential job duties that require discretion and independent judgment. Which of the following describes this employee?

  1. Exempt, based on the executive exemption test
  2. Exempt, based on the administrative exemption test
  3. Nonexempt, based on the salary basis requirement
  4. Nonexempt

Answer(s): C

Explanation:

Answer option C is correct. Effective in 2004, employees must be paid a minimum of $455 per week to be exempt from FLSA requirements. This employee earns only $432.69 per week. ($22, 500/52 weeks = $432.69.) Although D is also correct, the best answer is the one that explains why. See Chapter 6 for more information.
