The follow up question is how do I multiply the value of this cell by an
hourly rate (cell format numeric) to calculate the amount owed? Calc gets
upset trying to multiply a time (say 06:00) by a currency (say $20.00) to
produce a total currency value of $120.00.


All dates and times in all spreadsheet programs are numbers in unit "Days".
Today is day #40743. 40743.75 is the same value as 2011-07-19 18:00

=X1*24 returns the time number in cell X1 in unit "Hours".
=X1*24*Y1 multiplies the hours with an hourly wage in Y1.

Hope this helps.
