How to convert hourly pay to salary
To estimate your annual salary from an hourly wage, multiply your hourly rate by the number of hours you work each week and then by the number of weeks you work during the year.
Annual Salary = Hourly Wage × Hours Per Week × Weeks Per Year
A common full-time estimate uses 40 hours per week and 52 weeks per year. That equals 2,080 working hours per year.
Hourly to salary example
Suppose you earn $25 per hour and work 40 hours per week for 52 weeks per year.
Hourly Wage: $25
Hours Per Week: 40
Weeks Per Year: 52
Annual Salary: $52,000
Monthly Pay: $4,333.33
Biweekly Pay: $2,000
Weekly Pay: $1,000
How many work hours are in a year?
Using a standard 40-hour workweek for 52 weeks gives 2,080 working hours per year.
Your actual annual working hours may be lower if you take unpaid time off or work fewer than 52 weeks. You can change the hours per week and weeks per year fields in the calculator to match your situation.
Gross pay vs. take-home pay
The results from this calculator are gross pay estimates before taxes, insurance, retirement contributions, and other payroll deductions.
Your actual take-home pay can be lower depending on federal, state, and local taxes as well as deductions from your paycheck.
