Hourly to salary calculator

Convert hourly pay into an annual salary equivalent with visible work-schedule assumptions.

What this calculator covers

Convert hourly pay into an annual salary equivalent from the weekly hours and weeks worked each year.

The walkthrough shows the weekly-pay and annual-hours steps so the annualized result stays inspectable.

Frequently asked questions

How do I annualize my hourly pay if I work fewer than 52 weeks?
Enter the number of weeks you actually work in the "weeks worked per year" field. Part-time workers, contractors, and seasonal employees often use fewer than 52, and the result adjusts accordingly.
Does the annual salary include overtime?
No. The calculator uses a straight hourly rate multiplied by the scheduled hours, so overtime premiums are not included. If overtime is a regular part of your pay, add a separate calculation for those hours at the appropriate rate.
What is the standard full-time assumption for annual hours?
A common benchmark is 40 hours per week for 52 weeks, which equals 2,080 hours per year. Many salary surveys and job postings use this figure when converting between hourly and annual pay.
Does this show take-home pay?
No. The result is gross annual pay before income taxes, payroll taxes, health insurance, and other deductions are removed. Use a paycheck calculator to estimate net take-home from the annualized figure.
