Salaried. Your employment contract and letter from your employer should set out your base salary. If this is enough on it's own to meet the financial requirement, I would leave out the overtime completely and just rely on your salary alone especially since your pay slips indicate the contracted hours.
Overtime cannot be ignored because even it doesn't be pacifically displayed on payslip but it will definitely be included inside the base salary making the total gross income be variable almost each month. It still need to be segregated and calculated along with base wages.
Add up all the overtime income from the 6 months prior to the date of application and double it. Then add that number to your base annual salary to get the total income you can use for the application.
You have to calculate your overtime because it is the part of your payslip which also gets credited into your account along with base salary. If you had no base salary then you can use none-salaried method over your whole gross income without even separating the overtime.
Dividing by 6 and then multiplying by 12 is the same as doubling. I find it easier just to double it, fewer chances to make a mistake doing the math.
A lot of times through covering letter you have to show your income calculations especially on those occasions (like in op's case) where both salaried & none-salaried methods are simultaneously used to avoid any caseworker's mistake then you have to quote the official formula.
Yes. Simply add the total of 3 months of overtime then use the same formula & approach advised previously.
