How does this calculator work?
Annual salary = hourly rate × hours/week × weeks/year. At $25/h, 40 h/week, 52 weeks that is $52,000/year gross ($4,333/month, $2,000/fortnight). All figures are pre-tax — apply your jurisdiction's rates to find take-home pay.
Formula
How this is calculated
The core conversion is straightforward: multiply your hourly rate by the number of hours you work each week to get your weekly gross pay, then multiply that by the number of weeks you work per year to reach your annual gross salary. The standard full-time benchmark is 40 hours × 52 weeks = 2,080 hours per year.
If you take unpaid leave or work a part-year contract, reduce the weeks per year accordingly. The monthly figure divides the annual salary evenly by 12, which is a slightly different result than multiplying weekly pay by 4.33 (the average weeks per month) — both are correct; the annual-then-divide-by-12 approach is used by most payroll systems. Bi-weekly pay is simply two weeks of gross pay.
All figures are gross (before income tax, social contributions or other deductions). To estimate take-home pay, apply your jurisdiction's tax brackets and deduction rates, which vary widely by country, filing status and other factors.
Frequently asked questions
The standard full-time benchmark is 40 hours/week × 52 weeks = 2,080 paid hours per year in the US. In many European countries a 37.5 or 38-hour week is standard, giving 1,950–1,976 hours annually.
$25 × 40 h/week × 52 weeks = $52,000 per year gross. At 37.5 h/week the same rate gives $48,750 annually.
There are 52 weeks in a year but only 12 months, so a month averages 4.333 weeks. Multiplying weekly by 4 understates monthly pay by about 8%. The calculator uses annual ÷ 12, which is the standard payroll method.
