The arithmetic behind the chart
Salary ÷ 2,080 gives the hourly rate; hourly rate × 2,080 gives the salary. Everything else follows from the annual figure: ÷ 12 for a month, ÷ 26 for a biweekly paycheck, ÷ 24 twice a month and ÷ 52 for a week.
Every figure here is gross pay — what an employer quotes, before income tax, social security or national insurance, pension contributions and health premiums. What actually reaches your account depends on your country, state and filing status.
Frequently asked questions
How do I convert a salary to an hourly rate?
Divide the annual salary by the hours you are paid for in a year. Full time that is 2,080 hours (40 × 52), so a $52,000 salary is $25.00 an hour.
How do I convert an hourly rate to a salary?
Multiply by 2,080 for full-time hours: $25 an hour is $52,000 a year. For part-time work, multiply the rate by your weekly hours and then by the number of paid weeks.
Why are 26 biweekly paychecks not the same as 24 semi-monthly ones?
A year holds 26 two-week periods but only 24 half-months, so each biweekly paycheck is smaller. Two months a year contain three biweekly paydays, which is why those months feel larger.
Should I use 2,080 hours or my actual hours?
Use 2,080 to compare US job offers, since that is the figure US employers and salary surveys use. Use your actual paid hours when you want to know what your own time is really worth — the widget above takes both.
