How to Convert Hourly Wage to Annual Salary
The formula to convert an hourly rate to an annual salary is straightforward: multiply the hourly rate by the number of hours worked per week, then multiply by the number of weeks worked per year.
Annual salary = hourly rate × hours per week × weeks per year
For a standard full-time job in the US: hourly rate × 40 × 52 = annual salary. The 2,080 figure (40 × 52) is the standard used by the US Bureau of Labor Statistics for comparing hourly and salaried wages.
Annual salary to hourly rate
To go the other direction, divide your annual salary by 2,080 (for a 40-hour week) to get your hourly equivalent. This is useful when comparing a salaried job offer against a contracting/freelance rate.
| Annual salary | Hourly (40h/52w) | Monthly gross |
|---|---|---|
| $30,000 | $14.42 | $2,500 |
| $40,000 | $19.23 | $3,333 |
| $50,000 | $24.04 | $4,167 |
| $60,000 | $28.85 | $5,000 |
| $75,000 | $36.06 | $6,250 |
| $100,000 | $48.08 | $8,333 |
All amounts shown are before income tax, Social Security, Medicare, and other deductions. Your actual take-home pay will be lower. For a rough net estimate, apply an effective tax rate of 15–30% depending on your income level and filing status.
