How the Hourly to Salary Calculator Works
Annual Salary = Hourly Rate × Hours per Week × Weeks per Year
Monthly = Annual ÷ 12
Bi-Weekly = Annual ÷ 26
Weekly = Hourly Rate × Hours per Week
Daily = Weekly ÷ 5 (assumes 5-day work week)
Example: $25/hr · 40 hrs/week · 52 weeks = $52,000/year · $4,333/month · $2,000/bi-weekly
All figures are gross (pre-tax). Use the Paycheck Calculator to estimate take-home pay.

Hourly to Salary Calculator Frequently Asked Questions
How many weeks should I use for the annual calculation?
Use 52 for a full year without unpaid leave. Use 50 if you take 2 weeks unpaid vacation. Part-time or seasonal workers should enter their actual working weeks. Paid vacation doesn't reduce this number, you still receive pay for those weeks.
Why is my bi-weekly pay not exactly half my monthly pay?
There are 26 bi-weekly periods per year but only 12 months. Each bi-weekly period = Annual ÷ 26. Each month = Annual ÷ 12. Two months per year have three bi-weekly paydays instead of two.
Does this include overtime?
No, this calculator assumes all hours are at your standard rate. For overtime calculations, use the Overtime Calculator to add 1.5× pay on hours above 40 per week before converting to salary.
How do I compare a job offer paying hourly vs. salaried?
Convert both to annual equivalent using this calculator. Also factor in benefits: hourly workers often don't receive paid leave or health insurance, which can represent $5,000–$15,000 in additional annual value for salaried positions.
What is $15/hour as an annual salary?
$15 × 40 hours × 52 weeks = $31,200 per year. Monthly that's $2,600. Bi-weekly: $1,200.
What is $20/hour as an annual salary?
$20 × 40 × 52 = $41,600 per year. At 35 hours/week it's $36,400. These are pre-tax gross figures.
Are the numbers I enter into this calculator saved or tracked?
No. Every calculation runs right inside your browser using local code. Your salary, debts, and loan numbers stay completely private. Nothing is ever saved or sent to any server.
How should I account for taxes, inflation, and unexpected fees?
Most formulas show baseline estimates. In real life, keep local taxes, inflation, and bank fees in mind so your budget matches your actual costs.
