Hourly pay and annual salary are the two most common ways employers quote compensation, and comparing them requires a reliable conversion. Job seekers evaluating offers, employees negotiating raises, HR professionals benchmarking roles, and workers budgeting annual expenses all need to translate between the two. The standard method multiplies the hourly wage by hours per week and then by 52 weeks — assuming a full-year schedule. This calculator performs that conversion and also returns monthly and weekly income breakdowns, giving a complete picture at all time horizons. Part-time workers can adjust the hours per week to model their specific schedule, and the monthly income figure is especially useful for budgeting rent, mortgage payments, and monthly bills.

How It Works

Weekly income = Hourly wage × Hours per week. Annual salary = Weekly income × 52. Monthly income = Annual salary ÷ 12. The factor of 52 represents the 52 weeks in a calendar year. This calculation assumes the employee works all 52 weeks without unpaid leave — the same assumption used in most employment benchmarking and salary comparison contexts. The monthly figure divides annual salary by 12, producing a figure slightly different from multiplying weekly pay by 4 (which would give only 48 weeks). Using the ÷ 12 approach matches how monthly salaries are typically stated and how monthly budgeting is typically done.

Examples

Full-Time at $20/hr
40 hours per week at $20/hour — a common entry-level wage.
Result: $41,600/year, $3,467/month, $800/week.
Part-Time at $25/hr
25 hours per week at $25/hour.
Result: $32,500/year, $2,708/month, $625/week.
Professional at $50/hr
Full-time 40 hours per week at $50/hour.
Result: $104,000/year, $8,667/month, $2,000/week.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do you convert hourly pay to annual salary?
Multiply your hourly wage by the number of hours you work per week, then multiply by 52 (the number of weeks in a year). For a standard 40-hour week, this equals hourly × 2,080.
Does this calculator account for taxes?
No — it shows gross income before federal, state, and local taxes. Your actual take-home pay will be lower after income taxes, Social Security, Medicare, and any benefit deductions.
What if I get paid time off?
This calculator assumes you work all 52 weeks. If you take unpaid vacation weeks, reduce the effective weeks accordingly — for example, entering 50 weeks of effective pay by multiplying your hourly rate by 50 × 40 = 2,000 hours instead of 2,080.
