Salary Calculator
Convert a salary between hourly, daily, weekly, monthly and yearly amounts, with or without paid holidays and vacation.
About the Salary Calculator
Enter your pay for any period, such as an hourly rate or a yearly salary, and your usual hours and days. The table converts it to every other period, which helps when comparing a job offer quoted yearly with one quoted by the hour.
A full-time year is usually 52 weeks × 40 hours = 2,080 hours. Paid holidays and vacation don't change your salary, but they mean you're paid the same for fewer hours worked, so the adjusted column shows what each hour actually worked is worth.
The formula
Yearly = hourly × hours per week × 52
- 52
- weeks in a year
- Adjusted hourly
- yearly pay ÷ hours actually worked after paid days off
Worked example
$50 an hour, 40 hours a week, 10 holidays and 15 vacation days
- Yearly = 50 × 40 × 52 = $104,000
- Days worked: 52 × 5 − 25 = 235 days, or 1,880 hours
- Adjusted hourly: 104,000 ÷ 1,880 = $55.32
Things to keep in mind
- Gross pay before tax and deductions. Use the take-home pay calculator for your country to see what reaches your bank.
- Overtime and bonuses are not included.
Questions people ask
How many work hours are in a year?
2,080 at 40 hours a week; 1,950 at 37.5.
Is twice-a-month the same as every two weeks?
No: 24 paychecks vs 26 a year, so each biweekly check is smaller.
How do I compare a salaried job with an hourly one?
Convert both to yearly pay, then add the value of paid leave and benefits the hourly job may not include.
