Full set: 55 questions

B: Eight regular hours on April 05 and no regular hours on April 06.

C: Four regular hours on April 05 and four regular hours on April 06.

D: Six regular hours on April 05 and two regular hours on April 06. Correct answer

Correct Answer:

D. Six regular hours on April 05 and two regular hours on April 06.

Explanation

With a Day Breaker of 2:00 AM (current day from previous day), Workday ends the prior workday at 2 AM. Hours before 02:00 belong to the previous calendar date; hours at/after 02:00 belong to the new date. The 8 PM–4 AM block is therefore split into 6 hours on April 05 (20:00–02:00) and 2 hours on April 06 (02:00–04:00).

Why Incorrect

A. Reverses the 2/6-hour allocation.
B. Ignores the day-breaker and assigns all hours to April 05.
C. Splits the block evenly, not at the configured 02:00 offset.
