Hourly to Salary: Complete Guide

How This Calculation Works

Converting hourly pay to annual salary uses one formula: your hourly rate × hours per week × 52 weeks. For full-time work (40 hours/week), that's hourly rate × 2,080. For example, $22/hour × 2,080 = $45,760 per year gross. Our calculator applies this instantly and estimates federal tax so you see your approximate take-home pay.

Example With Real Numbers

Say you earn $18.50 per hour and work 40 hours a week. Your gross yearly salary is $18.50 × 2,080 = $38,480. After federal taxes (roughly 12% at this level), you'd keep about $33,900 per year. That's $2,825 per month or $1,304 per biweekly paycheck before state tax. Enter your rate above to get your numbers.

When This Calculator Is Useful

Use it when you're offered an hourly job and want to compare it to a salaried role, when planning a budget around your current wage, or when applying for loans that ask for annual income. It's also handy for side gigs—see what your extra hourly work adds up to per year.

What Can Change the Final Result

Overtime, bonuses, and tips increase your actual earnings. Part-time hours reduce them. The tax estimate is federal only; state and local taxes, 401(k) contributions, and health premiums will change your take-home. Filing status (single, married) also affects taxes.

FAQ

How do I convert my hourly wage to salary?

Multiply your hourly rate by 2,080 (40 hrs × 52 weeks). Or use our calculator above—just enter your rate.

What is $15 an hour as a yearly salary?

At 40 hrs/week, $15/hr = $31,200 per year gross. After federal tax, about $27,000–28,000 take-home.

What is $25 an hour as a yearly salary?

$25/hr full-time = $52,000 per year gross. After federal tax, roughly $40,500–41,500 take-home.

Does the calculator include overtime?

No. It assumes 40 hours/week. For overtime, add 1.5× your rate for hours over 40 and calculate separately.

Why is my take-home less than the calculator shows?

We estimate federal tax only. State tax, FICA, 401(k), health insurance, and other deductions lower your paycheck.

Can I use this for part-time work?

Yes, but multiply by different hours. For 20 hrs/week, use hourly × 1,040. Or enter your rate and mentally adjust the result.
