Hourly to Salary Calculator

Convert hourly wage to annual, monthly, weekly, and daily gross pay—with optional estimated tax withholding for take-home pay. Free, instant.

How it works

Annual gross pay is hourly rate × hours per week × paid weeks per year—not always 2,080 hours if you get unpaid time off or work overtime differently. Example: $28/hour × 40 hours × 52 weeks = $58,240 gross per year (~$4,853/month). At a 22% estimated tax and deduction rate, take-home is roughly $45,427/year (~$3,786/month), or about $21.84 net per hour worked.

Frequently asked questions

Why not just multiply hourly by 2,080?

2,080 assumes 40 hours × 52 weeks with no unpaid leave. Teachers, seasonal workers, and employees with PTO banks often use fewer paid weeks—adjust "paid weeks per year" to match your paycheck pattern.

How accurate is the tax estimate?

The tax field is a single blended rate for income tax, Social Security/Medicare or equivalent, and typical benefits—not a full payroll simulation. High earners, multiple jobs, and local taxes need a higher percentage; use your last pay stub's net-to-gross ratio as a sanity check.

Does overtime or time-and-a-half count?

Enter your average hourly wage across regular and overtime hours, or reduce hours per week if overtime is sporadic. A job at $28 base with 5 hours/week at time-and-a-half averages closer to $29.75/hour for budgeting.
