The arithmetic
- Annual = hourly × hours per week × weeks paid. 40 × 52 = 2,080 hours is the standard full-time year.
- Monthly = annual ÷ 12. Not weekly × 4: a month is 4.33 weeks, and the ÷ 4 shortcut understates monthly pay by 8%.
- Biweekly = annual ÷ 26. Semimonthly = annual ÷ 24; the checks are 8% larger and there are two fewer of them.
- Part time: the same formula with your real hours. 25 hours a week at $18 is $23,400, not a share of the 40-hour figure.
Gross to take-home
Everything on this page is gross pay. Federal income tax, state income tax where it exists, and 7.65% for Social Security and Medicare come off before it reaches you, along with any health-insurance premium and retirement contribution. For a single filer with no other deductions, take-home is typically 75-82% of gross at $40,000 to $80,000, less in high-tax states. Your paystub's year-to-date figures are the real answer.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I convert an hourly wage to a salary?
Hourly rate × hours per week × weeks per year. At 40 hours and 52 weeks that is × 2,080: $20 an hour is $41,600 a year, $25 is $52,000, $30 is $62,400. A quick approximation is to double the hourly rate and add three zeros: $20 → $40,000, which is within 4%.
What is $18, $22 and $35 an hour annually?
At full time: $18 is $37,440, $22 is $45,760, $35 is $72,800. Monthly those are $3,120, $3,813 and $6,067 gross. The chart below covers $10 to $75.
Does the salary include unpaid time off?
The standard 2,080-hour year assumes you are paid for all 52 weeks, which is true for salaried staff with paid vacation. An hourly worker who takes two unpaid weeks works 2,000 hours, and the calculator's 'unpaid weeks off' field handles that. Paid holidays and PTO do not reduce the figure.
Is a salary better than hourly at the same annual number?
Not automatically. Salaried exempt employees get no overtime, so 50-hour weeks cut the effective hourly rate by 20%; hourly non-exempt staff get 1.5× for those hours. Salary usually brings steadier paychecks, paid leave and benefits. Compare on the total package and the real hours, not the headline number.
These calculators apply the federal FLSA overtime rules, the 2025 federal overtime deduction as enacted, and standard pay-period arithmetic. They are estimates, not payroll, tax or legal advice: your state's rules, your employer's policy and your full tax return decide the real figures. Exempt employees get no overtime regardless of what the calculator shows.
