What this number means
An hourly-to-salary calculator multiplies your hourly wage by the hours and paid weeks you actually work. Unpaid days lower the annual total for hourly work.
Annual salary = hourly wage × hours per week × paid weeks per year. The default is 40 × 52.
A $25 hourly wage
$25 an hour at 40 hours and 52 paid weeks is $52,000 a year, about $4,333 a month, and $2,000 every two weeks. Ten unpaid days reduce the hourly worker’s annual earnings. They do not change a salaried contract the same way.
How to read the result
Use the annual figure to compare an hourly job with a salaried offer. Open Total pay if the offer also includes a bonus, benefits, or equity, because those are not part of the wage.
Questions
Should I use 52 weeks or 50?
Use 52 when the hourly rate is paid for every week you are employed. Lower the paid weeks, or add unpaid days, when some of the year is unpaid.
Does overtime belong in the hourly rate?
Enter the rate you want converted. A higher rate or more hours raises the annual figure. This tool does not apply a time-and-a-half rule on its own.

Figures are gross amounts in the currency you select, calculated in the browser. Changing currency changes the symbol. It does not convert exchange rates. These figures are not tax, payroll, or investment advice. Biweekly means 26 pay periods. Semi-monthly means 24. A wage range from an official dataset is shown only when that dataset is active and the row is not suppressed.
