The Conversion Formula

Annual Salary = Hourly Wage × Hours per Week × Weeks per Year

A standard full-time schedule of 40 hours/week for 52 weeks/year is the most common baseline, but adjust the weeks field if you take significant unpaid time off.

This Is Gross Pay, Not Take-Home Pay

This calculation shows your gross (pre-tax) salary equivalent — your actual take-home pay will be lower after federal and state income tax, Social Security, Medicare, and any benefit deductions.

Why This Conversion Is Useful

Comparing an hourly job offer to a salaried position (or vice versa) requires converting to the same basis — this calculator makes that comparison straightforward, though remember that hourly positions may also offer overtime pay potential that salaried positions typically don't.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this my take-home pay?

No, this is your gross (pre-tax) annual salary equivalent — actual take-home pay will be lower after taxes and any benefit deductions are subtracted.

Why use 52 weeks instead of accounting for vacation time?

52 weeks is the standard full-time baseline; if you take significant unpaid time off, reduce the "weeks worked" field accordingly for a more accurate comparison to your actual expected annual earnings.
