How this calculator works

  1. 1Your schedule is converted into total hours worked per year: hours per week × weeks per year.
  2. 2Annual salary is divided by those hours to give the hourly equivalent.
  3. 3Weekly, biweekly and monthly figures come straight from the annual salary, not from rounding the hourly rate.

Formula

Hourly rate = Annual salary ÷ (Hours per week × Weeks per year)

Worked example

  • A $62,000 salary at 40 hours per week for 52 weeks is 2,080 work hours.
  • $62,000 ÷ 2,080 = $29.81 per hour.
  • That is $1,192.31 per week and $2,384.62 every two weeks before taxes.

What we assume

  • Salaried pay is treated as the same amount every period, regardless of hours actually worked.
  • Paid time off is included in the weeks-per-year value you enter.
  • Figures are gross pay, before taxes and deductions.

Frequently asked questions

How many work hours are in a year?

A standard full-time schedule of 40 hours per week for 52 weeks is 2,080 hours. If you take two unpaid weeks off, use 50 weeks for 2,000 hours.

Should I use 52 weeks if I get paid vacation?

Yes. Paid time off is still paid, so the salary is spread across the full 52 weeks.

Is this my take-home hourly rate?

No. This is gross pay. Use the paycheck calculator to estimate what lands in your bank account.
