This hourly to salary calculator turns an hourly wage into yearly, monthly, biweekly, weekly and daily pay. Enter your hourly rate and hours per week, add overtime and any unpaid weeks off, and it shows your gross pay for each period. It also works in reverse, converting a salary into an hourly rate.
What is a Hourly to Salary Calculator?
Converting an hourly wage to a yearly salary helps you compare job offers, budget and apply for loans or apartments. The standard full-time year is 2,080 hours (40 hours × 52 weeks), so $20 an hour equals about $41,600 a year.
Real life varies: some jobs pay overtime at 1.5 times the regular rate, and some workers take unpaid time off. An hourly to salary calculator adjusts for both and converts the result into monthly, biweekly and weekly pay.
How does the Hourly to Salary Calculator work?
The calculator multiplies the hourly wage by hours per week and paid weeks per year, then adds overtime at 1.5 times the rate. It divides the yearly total by 12, 26 and 52 for other pay periods.
In reverse, it divides the salary by hours per week times paid weeks to get the hourly rate.

- Choose hourly to salary or salary to hourly.
- Enter your hourly wage or salary.
- Enter hours per week.
- Add overtime hours if any.
