Yearly salary = hourly rate × hours per week × weeks per year
A full-time year is 40 hours × 52 weeks = 2,080 hours. That single number lets you go both ways: multiply an hourly rate by 2,080 to get a salary, or divide a salary by 2,080 to get an hourly rate. Part-time schedules work the same way with your own hours.
How do I convert an hourly wage to an annual salary?
Multiply the hourly rate by hours per week, then by weeks worked per year. At 40 hours and 52 weeks that is 2,080 hours, so a quick rule is: hourly rate × 2,080 = yearly salary. $25 an hour × 2,080 = $52,000.
How do I convert a salary to an hourly rate?
Divide the yearly salary by 2,080 (40 hours × 52 weeks). $60,000 ÷ 2,080 = $28.85 an hour. If you work different hours, divide by your own hours per year instead.
Should I count paid vacation?
For a salaried job with paid time off, keep 52 weeks: you are paid for vacation. If you are hourly and unpaid when you take time off, lower the weeks (for example 50) to see your real annual earnings.
Is this before or after taxes?
