Formula

Hourly to salary formula

Annual Pay = (Hourly Rate × Hours per Week + Overtime) × Paid Weeks per Year
  • Paid weeks can differ from 52 when contracts include unpaid leave or seasonal downtime.
  • Overtime is calculated separately to avoid hiding variable income inside the base rate.
  • This page gives gross-pay planning numbers before tax.

FAQ

Common questions

Does this calculator include taxes?

No. It converts gross hourly pay into gross salary equivalents. Pair it with gross-to-net pages for take-home planning.

Why use paid weeks instead of just 52?

Because many workers do not get paid every week of the year due to unpaid leave, contract breaks, or seasonal patterns.

Can I use this for freelance work?

Yes, especially when you want to translate an hourly billable rate into an annual planning estimate.
