How we check this calculator

Every conversion on this page reduces to one identity — annual pay ÷ paid hours — so we verify it with round-trip checks: converting $60,000 to hourly and back must return exactly $60,000, and the biweekly figure must equal exactly 2× the weekly figure across 26 periods. The after-tax estimates on the per-salary pages share one federal-tax module with the Income Tax Calculator, so both tools are re-checked together against the IRS bracket tables whenever a new tax year is published.

Frequently asked questions

Is this gross or take-home pay?
These are gross figures, before income tax, Social Security, Medicare, health insurance or retirement contributions. Your actual take-home pay will be lower and depends on your tax situation.
How many work hours are in a year?
A common full-time assumption is 2,080 hours (40 hours × 52 weeks). If you take unpaid time off, lower the weeks-per-year figure to reflect the weeks you're actually paid.
How is a salary converted to an hourly rate?
Divide the annual salary by the number of paid hours in a year. For 2,080 hours, a $52,000 salary is exactly $25 per hour. Adjust the hours-per-week and weeks-per-year inputs to match your schedule.
