How Salary Conversion Works
Annual Salary = Hourly Rate x Hours/Week x 52Salary conversion relies on knowing your hours per week and the number of working weeks per year. A standard full-time schedule is 40 hours per week across 52 weeks, yielding 2,080 work hours per year.
Hourly = Annual / (Hours/Week x 52)Daily = Annual / 260 work daysWeekly = Annual / 52 weeksBiweekly = Annual / 26 pay periodsMonthly = Annual / 12 monthsKey conversion factors:
- 260 work days per year - 52 weeks times 5 work days per week
- 2,080 work hours per year - 52 weeks times 40 hours for a standard schedule
- 26 biweekly periods - 52 weeks divided by 2
- Adjusted calculations subtract PTO and holiday hours from total work hours before converting, giving you a more realistic picture if your time off is unpaid
If you are a salaried employee with paid time off, your annual salary stays the same regardless of PTO. The adjusted figures are most useful for hourly workers or contractors who do not get paid during time off.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I convert my hourly wage to an annual salary?
Multiply your hourly rate by the number of hours you work per week, then multiply by 52 (weeks per year). For example, $25/hour at 40 hours/week equals $25 x 40 x 52 = $52,000 per year. This calculator does this conversion automatically and also accounts for PTO and holidays if applicable.
How do I convert my annual salary to an hourly rate?
Divide your annual salary by the number of work hours in a year. For a standard 40-hour work week, that is 2,080 hours per year (40 x 52). For example, a $60,000 salary equals $60,000 / 2,080 = approximately $28.85 per hour.
What is the difference between unadjusted and adjusted salary?
The unadjusted salary assumes you work every scheduled day of the year with no time off. The adjusted salary accounts for unpaid time off, including vacation days (PTO) and public holidays. If your PTO and holidays are paid, your actual earnings match the unadjusted figures.
How many work hours are in a year?
A standard work year has 2,080 hours, based on 40 hours per week multiplied by 52 weeks. However, after accounting for typical paid time off (10 days) and public holidays (10 days), the actual working hours drop to approximately 1,920 hours. This calculator lets you customize these values to match your situation.
What is biweekly pay?
Biweekly pay means you receive a paycheck every two weeks, resulting in 26 paychecks per year (52 weeks / 2). This differs from semi-monthly pay, which is twice per month (24 paychecks per year). Biweekly pay means two months each year will have three paychecks instead of two.
