Hourly to salary table (40-hour week)

This table uses the 2,080-hour rule, 40 hours a week for 52 weeks, to link an hourly rate to a salary. It is meant for quickly comparing offers. For your actual schedule, the calculator below recalculates everything with your hours and weeks.

How to read and adjust the table

Each row is the hourly rate times 2,080 for the year, divided by 12 for the month and by 26 for the biweekly paycheck. A rule of thumb: double the hourly rate and add three zeros to get a rough yearly salary, since 2,080 is close to 2,000. At $30 an hour that gives $60,000 against the real $62,400, a 4% gap, so use it only as a mental shortcut.
The table assumes pay in all 52 weeks. For each unpaid week, subtract 40 hours times the hourly rate: at $25, every unpaid week costs $1,000 over the year. The figures are gross, before federal income tax, Social Security, Medicare and state tax, and the calculator has a tab to estimate take-home.

How do I convert an hourly wage to an annual salary?

Multiply the hourly rate by the hours you are paid for in a year. For a full-time job that is 40 hours x 52 weeks = 2,080, so $25 an hour is $52,000. If you take unpaid time off, subtract those weeks first: with two unpaid weeks it is 2,000 hours and $50,000.

Frequently asked questions

Why 2,080 hours a year?

Because 40 hours a week times 52 weeks equals 2,080. It is the convention used in offers and spreadsheets for a full-time job paid all year, without subtracting time off or unpaid weeks.

What if I work 37.5 or 35 hours a week?

Change the hours per week in the calculator. At $30 an hour, 37.5 hours is 1,950 hours and $58,500 a year; 35 hours is 1,820 hours and $54,600.

Do the table values already include tax?

No, they are all gross. Use the Take-home pay tab to estimate what is left after 2026 federal tax, FICA and state tax.
