Salary Converter
Convert between hourly wage and weekly, monthly and yearly salary — in dollars, based on your weekly hours.
Key facts
- $25 an hour at 40 h/week comes to $52,000 a year — about $4,333 a month and $1,000 a week (40 × 52 = 2,080 work hours/year).
- The standard conversion uses 2,080 hours/year (40 h × 52 weeks). Part-time scales directly with weekly hours: 30 h instead of 40 h is three quarters of the annual pay.
- This is gross pay — taxes and FICA are not deducted. For actual take-home after federal income tax and FICA, use the US paycheck calculator.
FAQ
- How do I convert hourly wage to annual salary?
- Hourly wage × weekly hours × 52 weeks = annual salary. Example: $25 × 40 × 52 = $52,000. Divided by 12 gives the monthly figure ($4,333), by 52 the weekly figure ($1,000).
- What is 2,080 hours?
- The common US full-time convention: 40 hours per week × 52 weeks = 2,080 work hours a year. So an hourly wage of $30 equals about $62,400 a year. Holidays and vacation can lower the actual hours.
- Is this gross or net?
- Gross. The converter shows pay before taxes and FICA. For take-home pay after federal income tax, Social Security and Medicare, use the US paycheck calculator.
