How the hourly-to-salary math works
The core formula is simple: hourly rate × hours per week × 52 weeks. A standard full-time job is 40 hours a week, so a full year is 40 × 52 = 2,080 hours. That means every $1 of hourly wage is worth $2,080 of annual salary before taxes.
Take-home pay is lower than gross because federal income tax, FICA (Social Security 6.2% and Medicare 1.45%), and state income tax (where it applies) are withheld from every paycheck. Use the calculator above with your state selected to see your real net pay per hour, week, two weeks, month, and year.
Hourly to salary FAQ
How do I convert an hourly wage to an annual salary?
Multiply your hourly rate by the hours you work per week, then by 52 weeks. At the standard 40 hours/week that's hourly × 2,080. For example, $25/hour × 2,080 = $52,000 per year before taxes.
How many work hours are in a year?
A full-time schedule of 40 hours per week × 52 weeks equals 2,080 hours per year. If you take two unpaid weeks off, use 2,000 hours; for 35-hour weeks use 1,820 hours.
$25 an hour is how much a year?
$25 an hour is $52,000 a year before taxes (40 hours/week × 52 weeks). After federal income tax and FICA, a single filer takes home about $43,911 per year. State income tax, where it applies, reduces this further.
Is the after-tax number the same in every state?
No. The gross annual figure is the same everywhere, but take-home pay depends on your state's income tax. A no-income-tax state like Texas or Florida leaves you with more than a high-tax state like California or New York. Select a state in the calculator above for an exact net.
