how is the labor burden calculated in the 6-1-2 reports?

Question

I am having a difficult time trying to figure out how the labor cost is being calculated on the 6-1-2, labor cost reports. they are varying highly for my designer. the same job had one days work at 31.80$ and another days at 75.20$, regular hours, not overtime. I am wondering if it is calculating the labor cost based on the paycheck that the weeks time was on. In other words on week of 12/11 she had $0 commission so her taxable burden was lower than week 12/18 where she received a considerable amount of commission raising her taxable burden higher. Any insight would be helpful.

Burden is the gross payroll PLUS any adds to gross PLUS all employer paid benefits, taxes, workers comp, etc that you have processing through payroll.

Also if employees are salary make sure you are booking a full 40 hrs for the week and not just one day they worked on a job. 
 salary will be divided by hours.
