Divide annual salary by 2,080 (40 hours x 52 weeks) for a full-time hourly rate. $52,000 / 2,080 = $25/hour. For a part-time job at 30 hours/week, divide by 1,560. Our salary calculator handles annual, monthly, biweekly, weekly, and hourly conversions in both directions. The salary calculator also factors in overtime, bonuses, and pre-tax deductions.

How it works

How to convert salary to hourly, weekly, or monthly

Our salary calculator lets you convert an annual salary into other pay periods and estimate take-home pay in four steps.

  1. 1

    Enter your annual salary

    Type your gross annual salary in the Salary field. If you are salaried but want hourly, start with the annual figure - the calculator converts to other periods automatically.

  2. 2

    Pick your pay frequency

    Choose how often you get paid (weekly, biweekly, semimonthly, monthly). The calculator divides your annual salary by the matching number of pay periods (52, 26, 24, or 12).

  3. 3

    Add your tax information

    Pick your filing status and state for the take-home estimate. The calculator applies federal, state, and FICA withholding to your gross pay to estimate your net pay.

  4. 4

    Read the breakdown

    The result shows gross and net pay for every pay period, plus annual totals, total tax, and the percentage of your pay that goes to taxes.
