Convert annual salary to hourly pay
Enter an annual salary and the work schedule you want to compare. The calculator returns an hourly equivalent plus common pay-period estimates based on those inputs.
Convert hourly pay to annual income
Switch the direction to start with an hourly rate and work schedule, then compare annual, monthly, semi-monthly, biweekly, weekly, and daily gross-pay equivalents.
$25/hour at 40 hours per week
Enter $25 per hour, 40 hours per week, and 52 paid weeks to compare the resulting annual gross-pay estimate.
What this calculator does not include
The conversion is gross-pay arithmetic. It does not estimate income tax, payroll tax, benefits, paid or unpaid leave, bonuses, commissions, overtime eligibility, or state-specific payroll rules.
Common questions
Why can my real paycheck differ from this conversion?
Payroll can include taxes, insurance, retirement contributions, overtime, paid time off, bonuses, and other deductions or earnings. This tool only converts gross pay using the schedule you enter.
Should I use 52 weeks per year?
Use 52 when the pay assumption covers the full year. If you expect fewer paid working weeks, change the field so the conversion matches your situation.
How do I calculate overtime pay?
Use the Overtime Pay Calculator after you know the total hours and hourly rate.
The annual work-hours assumption changes the conversion
A 40-hour week across 52 paid weeks uses 2,080 hours per year, while a 37.5-hour week across 52 weeks uses 1,950. If unpaid weeks or a different schedule apply, change those inputs instead of treating 2,080 as universal.
If you do not yet know the weekly-hours assumption, calculate the schedule with the Work Hours Calculator or total varying punches with the Time Card Calculator. Use the Overtime Pay Calculator separately when premium-rate hours need to be estimated.
