Convert your annual salary into an equivalent hourly, monthly and weekly wage — and switch the other way to turn an hourly rate back into a salary. Adjust your hours per week and weeks per year for an exact figure.
Figures are gross (pre-tax). For your actual paycheck after deductions, use a take-home pay calculator that applies federal, state and FICA taxes.
To convert a yearly salary to an hourly rate, divide your annual pay by the number of hours you work in a year — that is your hours per week multiplied by the number of paid weeks you work each year:
Hourly rate = annual salary ÷ (hours per week × weeks per year)
Example. If you earn $60,000 a year and work 40 hours a week for 52 weeks, your hourly rate is 60,000 ÷ (40 × 52) = 60,000 ÷ 2,080 = $28.85 before tax. A standard full-time year is 2,080 hours. If you take two weeks of unpaid leave, set weeks per year to 50 (2,000 hours).
Common annual salaries converted to hourly, monthly and weekly pay (40 hours/week, 52 weeks, pre-tax).
| Annual | Hourly | Monthly | Weekly |
|---|---|---|---|
| $30,000 | $14.42 | $2,500 | $577 |
| $40,000 | $19.23 | $3,333 | $769 |
| $50,000 | $24.04 | $4,167 | $962 |
| $60,000 | $28.85 | $5,000 | $1,154 |
| $70,000 | $33.65 | $5,833 | $1,346 |
| $80,000 | $38.46 | $6,667 | $1,538 |
| $90,000 | $43.27 | $7,500 | $1,731 |
| $100,000 | $48.08 | $8,333 | $1,923 |
| $120,000 | $57.69 | $10,000 | $2,308 |
| $150,000 | $72.12 | $12,500 | $2,885 |
Knowing your true hourly rate helps you compare a salaried offer against hourly or contract work, decide whether overtime or a side gig is worth it, and sanity-check a job offer. For context, the median weekly earnings of a full-time US worker were about $1,196, according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics — roughly $62,000 per year, or close to $30 an hour for a 40-hour week. Your real rate depends on how many hours you actually work, so use your own numbers above.
Divide your annual salary by the total number of hours you work in a year. For a standard full-time job that is 40 hours × 52 weeks = 2,080 hours. Example: $60,000 ÷ 2,080 = about $28.85 per hour, before tax.
$60,000 a year is about $28.85 an hour before tax, based on a 40-hour week for 52 weeks. That works out to roughly $5,000 per month and $1,154 per week.
$50,000 a year is about $24.04 an hour before tax (40 hours × 52 weeks), roughly $4,167 per month and $962 per week.
A standard full-time year is 2,080 hours (40 hours per week × 52 weeks). If you take two weeks of unpaid leave, use 2,000 hours (40 × 50). The calculator lets you set hours per week and weeks per year so the rate matches your real schedule.
The result is your gross (pre-tax) hourly rate. Your take-home pay will be lower after federal, state and FICA deductions.
Switch to the "Hourly → Salary" tab. The calculator multiplies your hourly rate by your hours per week and weeks per year. For example, $28.85 × 40 × 52 = about $60,000 per year.
