Salary Calculator (Hourly to Annual)

Job offers and pay rates come in different units — some hourly, some annual — which makes them hard to compare. This salary calculator converts an hourly wage into an annual, monthly, and weekly figure so you can line up offers and plan a budget. It multiplies your hourly rate by the hours you work each week and the weeks you work each year. Because it is a straight conversion, the result is exact for the inputs you give; it does not deduct taxes, so the figures are gross pay before withholding.

Default result: $52,000.00

Use 52 for a full year, or fewer if you take unpaid weeks off.

Formula reviewed against Definitional unit conversion (annual = hourly × hours/week × weeks/year) — exact multiplication (10-VERIFICATION.md)

How to calculate

Enter your hourly rate, the hours you work in a typical week, and the number of paid weeks you work in a year (52 for a full year). The calculator multiplies the rate by weekly hours to get weekly pay, multiplies that by weeks to get annual pay, and divides the annual figure by 12 for a monthly figure. For $25 an hour at 40 hours a week over 52 weeks, that is $1,000 a week, $52,000 a year, and about $4,333.33 a month.

Weekly = hourly rate × hours per week. Annual = weekly × weeks per year. Monthly = annual ÷ 12. To go the other way, hourly = annual ÷ (hours per week × weeks per year). All figures are gross pay; taxes, benefits, and other deductions are not subtracted.
Example calculation

Earning $25 an hour for 40 hours a week comes to $1,000 a week. Across 52 weeks that is $52,000 a year, or about $4,333.33 a month. Working fewer paid weeks — for example taking unpaid time off — lowers the annual figure proportionally.

Assumptions

  • The figures are gross pay before taxes, benefits, and other deductions.
  • Hours per week and weeks per year are constant; overtime, bonuses, and unpaid leave beyond the weeks entered are not modelled.
  • The monthly figure is simply the annual divided by 12, not a count of pay periods (which varies by employer).

Common mistakes

  • Using 52 weeks when you take unpaid time off — reduce the weeks-per-year figure to reflect actual paid weeks.
  • Comparing a gross hourly rate to a take-home salary; both figures here are gross, before tax.
  • Forgetting overtime or bonuses, which this straight conversion does not include.

Frequently asked questions

How do I convert hourly pay to an annual salary?

Multiply your hourly rate by the hours you work each week, then by the number of paid weeks in a year. At $25 an hour for 40 hours over 52 weeks, that is $52,000 a year.

How many work hours are in a year?

A common full-time figure is 2,080 hours (40 hours × 52 weeks). If you take unpaid weeks off, reduce the weeks-per-year input so the annual total reflects the hours you are actually paid for.

Is this before or after taxes?

Before taxes. The result is gross pay. Your take-home amount will be lower after income tax, payroll taxes, and any benefit or retirement deductions.

How do I convert an annual salary back to an hourly rate?

Divide the annual salary by the hours you work in a year (hours per week × weeks per year). For $52,000 over 2,080 hours, that is $25 an hour.
