Tool: Hourly to salary calculator · Embed · All how-we-calculate pages · Questions

Purpose

Convert an hourly rate and work schedule into annual and common pay-period gross amounts. Educational only.

Formulas

  • Regular annual = hourly rate × hours/week × weeks/year
  • OT annual = hourly rate × OT multiplier × OT hours/week × weeks/year
  • Annual total = regular annual + OT annual
  • Monthly = annual ÷ 12
  • Biweekly = annual ÷ 26
  • Weekly = annual ÷ weeks/year

What we intentionally leave out

  • Taxes, FICA, benefits, and net pay (see paycheck calculator)
  • FLSA exempt vs non-exempt classification rules
  • Shift differentials, double-time thresholds, and complex OT policies
  • Unpaid leave, PTO cash-out, and holiday premiums beyond the fields you type
