How to convert hourly pay to salary
Multiply your hourly rate by the hours you work in a week, then by the weeks you are paid in a year. At 40 hours a week for 52 weeks, that is 2,080 hours: $20 an hour is about $41,600 a year, and $25 an hour is $52,000. To go the other way, divide the yearly salary by 2,080. Divide by 12 for a monthly figure, or by 26 for pay every two weeks.
What this calculator leaves out
The numbers are before taxes, so your take-home pay will be lower. If you work part-time, enter your real hours per week. If you are paid for fewer than 52 weeks, change the weeks per year. Overtime is counted at 1.5 times your hourly rate, which is the federal rule for hourly workers covered by overtime law. Salaried jobs usually don't pay overtime at all, so check the offer.
