What This Calculator Does

Convert annual salary to hourly pay or hourly pay to annual salary using your own paid weeks and weekly hours. The page also shows daily, weekly, two-week and monthly equivalents. Actual attendance weeks provide a separate comparison without automatically treating paid vacation as unpaid.

When to Use It

Use it to compare gross pay scales or explore work-schedule assumptions. For raises use salary increase; for a specific start-to-end work interval use hours. Taxes, benefits and legal overtime calculations are separate tasks.

Inputs Explained

Choose annual or hourly input. Changing direction clears the amount to avoid reinterpreting a salary as an hourly rate. Amount is non-negative, at most 1e12. Weekly hours must be positive and at most 168, paid weeks positive and at most 53, attendance weeks positive and no greater than paid weeks, and days per week positive and at most 7. Hours cannot exceed days×24.

How the Calculation Works

Hourly = annual/(paid weeks×weekly hours). Annual = hourly×paid weeks×weekly hours. Daily = hourly×weekly hours/days per week. Weekly = annual/paid weeks. Biweekly = weekly×2. Monthly average = annual/12. Attendance-hour comparison = annual/(attendance weeks×weekly hours).

Example

Annual salary 52000, 52 paid weeks, 40 hours per week and 5 days per week gives 25/hour, 200/day, 1000/paid week, 2000/two paid weeks and 4333.3333/month. At 48 attendance weeks with 52 still paid, the standard hourly equivalent remains 25; annual pay per actual attendance hour becomes 27.0833. That is a comparison, not a changed contractual wage.
