Hourly to Salary Converter

The hourly to salary converter helps you translate an hourly wage into annual, monthly, weekly, and bi-weekly totals. Use it when you need to compare hourly offers to salaried roles, validate a raise, or budget a job change.

Because work schedules vary, the calculator lets you switch between standard full-time hours and custom schedules. That keeps the estimate aligned with how many hours you actually expect to work in a year.

The annual salary figure is simply your hourly rate multiplied by total hours worked in a year. Use the monthly and bi-weekly outputs to compare pay stubs, build a household budget, or understand how an hourly rate compares to a quoted salary.

If you work fewer weeks or fewer hours per week than the standard 2,080-hour assumption, adjust the custom schedule inputs to reflect that reality. The totals will drop proportionally and give a more accurate view of what actually lands in your paycheck.

We calculate total annual hours by multiplying weekly hours by weeks worked. The standard full-time assumption is 40 hours per week for 52 weeks, or 2,080 hours per year.

Gross pay estimates are simple multiplications without tax withholding, benefits, or deductions. To compare take-home pay, pair this calculator with the salary after tax tool.
