Hourly rate calculator: frequently asked questions
How do I convert a salary to an hourly rate?
Divide the annual salary by the number of weeks worked per year, then divide by the number of hours worked per week. For a $60,000 salary at 40 hours per week over 52 weeks: $60,000 / 52 / 40 = $28.85 per hour.
How many working hours are in a year?
A standard full-time worker works 52 weeks times 40 hours, giving 2,080 hours per year. If you subtract 2 weeks of vacation, that is 2,000 hours. This calculator lets you set both values.
How do I convert hourly to annual salary?
Multiply hourly rate by hours per week, then by weeks per year. For $25/hr at 40 hours over 52 weeks: $25 x 40 x 52 = $52,000 per year.
What is a daily rate?
The daily rate is your hourly rate multiplied by the number of hours you work per day. This calculator assumes a standard 8-hour day, which you can adjust by changing the hours-per-week field.
Does the calculator account for paid time off?
Set the weeks per year to the number of weeks you actually work. If you have 2 weeks of paid vacation and work 52 weeks total, set it to 52 if you are paid for those weeks, or 50 if you want to calculate only billable weeks.
