- Method
- Set the date window, inclusion rule, weekend pattern, and known closures before counting.
- Example
- March 2–13, 2026 contains 10 Monday–Friday weekdays before local closures.
- Check before using
- A federal or national calendar may not match a state, employer, court, carrier, or bank.

- Method
- Subtract start time from end time, handle midnight crossing, then deduct unpaid breaks.
- Example
- 09:00–17:30 minus a 30-minute unpaid break equals 8 paid hours.
- Check before using
- The arithmetic does not decide whether a break or activity is legally compensable.
Source: U.S. DOL hours records
- Method
- Calculate each shift first, preserve daily rows, then total the stated workweek.
- Example
- 8 + 8 + 7.5 + 8 + 8.5 hours produces a 40-hour weekly total.
- Check before using
- Overtime thresholds and rounding rules depend on jurisdiction and employer policy.
Source: U.S. DOL overtime guide
- Method
- Convert watts to kilowatts, multiply by runtime, then apply the relevant price per kWh.
- Example
- 1,200 W × 3 h/day × 30 ÷ 1,000 = 108 kWh; at $0.18/kWh, cost is $19.44.
- Check before using
- Cycling, standby use, tariff tiers, delivery charges, and taxes can change the bill.
Source: U.S. DOE appliance method
- Method
- Convert packages to one base unit, then divide the checkout price by comparable units.
- Example
- $4.80 for 750 g is $0.64/100 g; $6.96 for 1.2 kg is $0.58/100 g.
- Check before using
- Promotions, drained weight, membership rules, quality, and likely waste still matter.
Source: UK CMA unit pricing
- Method
- Divide route distance by realistic fuel economy, then multiply fuel volume by pump price.
- Example
- 420 miles ÷ 30 mpg = 14 gallons; 14 × $3.45 = $48.30.
- Check before using
- Traffic, weather, load, detours, tolls, parking, and actual fuel economy change the trip.
Source: DOE/EPA Trip Calculator
- Method
- Separate calendar days, scheduled workdays, weekends, and approved closure dates.
- Example
- Monday March 2 through Friday March 6, 2026 is 5 weekdays before local closures.
- Check before using
- Leave entitlement, approval, observed holidays, and part-time schedules are policy-specific.
Source: U.S. OPM leave calendar
- Method
- Move forward one day at a time and reject weekends plus confirmed closure dates.
- Example
- After the U.S. federal closure on Friday July 3, 2026, the next Monday–Friday date is July 6.
- Check before using
- Cutoff times, time zones, regional closures, and service calendars can produce another answer.
