Calculate your scenario
Annual gross pay = hourly rate × paid hours per week × paid weeks per year; from a salary, hourly rate = salary ÷ (paid hours per week × paid weeks).

Default worked example
$25.00 per hour × 40 hours × 52 paid weeks = $52,000.00 a year; plus a $0.00 bonus = $52,000.00, or $25.00 per paid hour.
How to use the calculator
Choose whether you are starting from an hourly rate or an annual salary, enter it, then the paid hours per week, working days per week and paid weeks per year. Add any annual bonus to see total gross and the effective hourly rate.
What the result means
At $25 an hour for 40 hours a week and 52 paid weeks, gross pay is $52,000 a year, $4,333.33 a month and $2,000 every two weeks.
Formula and units
Annual gross pay = hourly rate × paid hours per week × paid weeks per year; from a salary, hourly rate = salary ÷ (paid hours per week × paid weeks). Daily = weekly pay ÷ working days; biweekly = annual ÷ 26, semimonthly = annual ÷ 24, monthly = annual ÷ 12. Annual with bonus = base + bonus, and effective hourly = that total ÷ paid hours per year.

Limitations and common mistakes
Gross pay only: no income tax, payroll tax, benefits, retirement contributions or other deductions, so this is not take-home pay. Overtime premiums, shift differentials and paid leave rules are not modeled; paid weeks are the weeks you are actually paid for, and unpaid weeks are left out of annual pay.
Dividing a salary by 2,080 hours when you are only paid for part of the year (for example 48 weeks) understates the real hourly rate; enter the paid weeks instead.
