How to convert hourly to salary
Multiply your hourly rate by hours worked per week, then by weeks worked per year. For example, $25 × 40 × 52 = $52,000 a year. Use 50 weeks if you take two unpaid weeks off.
Gross, not take-home
This is your gross annual pay before federal tax and FICA. To see what actually lands in your account, run the figure through our paycheck take-home calculator.
Frequently asked questions
How many work hours are in a year?
Full-time is usually counted as 2,080 hours (40 hours × 52 weeks). Subtract unpaid time off if you don’t work all 52 weeks.
Does this include overtime?
No — it assumes a steady rate and weekly hours. Overtime, bonuses and commission would raise the annual figure.
