How this is calculated

The annual salary is the hourly rate times the hours worked per week times the weeks worked per year. Other pay periods follow by dividing the annual figure by the number of periods.

Formula

Salary = Hourly rate × Hours per week × Weeks per year
Monthly = Salary ÷ 12
Biweekly = Salary ÷ 26

More questions

Does this include overtime? No. It uses a flat number of hours. Overtime at time and a half needs its own calculation.

Is a salary or an hourly job better? It depends on hours, overtime and benefits. Converting both to an hourly rate makes the comparison fair.

History and background

Payroll departments commonly treat 2,080 hours, which is 40 hours times 52 weeks, as one full-time year, and that figure underlies most conversions between hourly and annual pay. Hourly pay became widespread as factory and office work was organized around fixed working hours, while salaries covered roles that were not paid by the hour.

Putting it to use

Use this calculator to see what an hourly job is worth per year, to compare offers, or to estimate monthly income for a budget. At $18 an hour for 35 hours a week over 52 weeks, the salary is $32,760. Remember that this is gross pay before tax.
