Turning an Hourly Wage into a Yearly Salary
Comparing job offers or budgeting is far easier when everything is on the same timescale. This calculator converts any hourly rate into the figures that matter — annual, monthly, biweekly and weekly — using the simple formula rate × hours per week × weeks per year. A standard full-time year is 2,080 hours (40 hours across 52 weeks), but part-time schedules, unpaid leave or overtime change the result, so adjust the inputs to match your real situation.
Remember that the headline salary is gross pay. Your actual take-home is lower once federal income tax, Social Security and Medicare are deducted, and lower still in states with an income tax. The estimated take-home shown here uses 2026 federal brackets and FICA for a single filer; for a precise figure including your state and 401(k), open the full US & UK calculator.
