PayMath

Hourly to annual salary calculator

Enter an hourly rate to see what it comes to over a year. If you work part time or take unpaid weeks, adjust the hours and weeks fields rather than assuming a standard full-time year.

Standard full-time is usually 40. Use your real average if it varies.
52 if you are paid every week of the year. Lower it to account for unpaid time off.

How this is calculated

Annual pay = hourly rate × hours per week × weeks worked per year. Monthly pay is that annual figure divided by 12.

The weeks field matters more than people expect. Dropping from 52 to 48 weeks reduces an annual figure by roughly 8%, which is the real cost of unpaid time off.

This calculator does not deduct tax or any other withholding. It shows gross pay.

Worked example: $20 an hour for 40 hours a week across 52 weeks = 20 × 40 × 52 = $41,600 a year.

Common questions

Does this include overtime or bonuses?

No. It converts a base hourly rate into annual gross pay. Overtime is better handled with the overtime calculator, which applies a multiplier to extra hours.

Is this gross or take-home pay?

Gross. Nothing is deducted. To estimate take-home, use the take-home estimator and enter your own effective deduction rate.

What if my hours change week to week?

Use a realistic average. If you work 40 hours most weeks and 30 in quieter months, enter something between rather than the highest figure.

What this does not do: This does not calculate tax, national insurance, superannuation, or any statutory deduction, and it does not account for unpaid leave, seasonal variation, or benefits. It is a gross-pay conversion only.
