Free Online Salary Calculator

Multiply your hourly rate by the number of hours you work per week, then multiply by the number of weeks you work per year. For example, $25/hour × 40 hours × 52 weeks = $52,000 per year. Use this calculator for instant conversions.

Divide your annual salary by the number of working hours per year. For a standard schedule: $52,000 ÷ (40 hours × 52 weeks) = $25 per hour. Adjust the hours and weeks to match your actual work schedule.

Bi-weekly pay means you are paid every two weeks, resulting in 26 paychecks per year. This is different from semi-monthly pay (twice per month, 24 paychecks). To convert annual salary to bi-weekly, divide by 26.

A standard full-time work year is 2,080 hours (40 hours per week × 52 weeks). If you take vacation or unpaid time off, adjust the weeks per year. For example, with 2 weeks of unpaid leave: 40 × 50 = 2,000 hours.

Gross pay is your total earnings before deductions. Take-home pay (net pay) is what you receive after federal and state taxes, Social Security, Medicare, health insurance, retirement contributions, and other deductions are subtracted.

For part-time work, adjust the hours per week to match your schedule. For example, if you work 20 hours per week at $25/hour: $25 × 20 × 52 = $26,000 per year. The calculator handles any hours-per-week value.

A good salary depends on location, industry, experience, and cost of living. The US median household income is approximately $75,000 (2024). Use this calculator to compare different pay offers across frequencies to make informed decisions.

Standard overtime is 1.5× your regular hourly rate for hours over 40 per week. To estimate, calculate your regular pay first, then add overtime hours × 1.5 × hourly rate separately. This calculator shows base pay conversions.
