Salary to Hourly Calculator

Use this salary to hourly calculator to convert an annual salary into an approximate hourly, weekly, and monthly rate using your typical hours per week and working weeks per year. The result is a gross estimate before taxes, benefits, and deductions, so take-home pay will be lower than the figures shown.

Common salary breakdowns

How to use this calculator

Enter your annual salary before taxes.
Set the hours you typically work per week and the number of paid weeks per year.
Use the hourly, weekly, and monthly results to compare offers or convert between pay structures.

Formula

Hourly rate = annual salary / (hours per week x weeks per year)
Weekly gross = annual salary / weeks per year
Monthly gross = annual salary / 12

Example calculation

A $60,000 salary at 40 hours per week and 52 weeks per year works out to about $28.85 per hour, $1,154 per week, and $5,000 per month before taxes.

How to interpret the results

These are gross figures before income tax, payroll deductions, insurance, and retirement contributions, so actual take-home pay will be lower.
Adjust hours per week and weeks per year to reflect unpaid time off, since fewer paid weeks raises the equivalent hourly rate for the same salary.
Use the hourly rate to compare salaried and hourly offers on a consistent basis rather than comparing headline numbers alone.

Frequently asked questions

Is this gross or net pay?

These are gross figures before taxes and deductions. Net or take-home pay depends on your tax situation, benefits, and other withholdings.

How many weeks should I use?

Use 52 for a full year. If you want to account for unpaid time off, reduce the weeks, which raises the equivalent hourly rate for the same salary.

Can I convert hourly back to salary?

Yes. Multiply the hourly rate by hours per week and weeks per year. For example, $28.85 x 40 x 52 is about $60,000 per year.
