Convert between hourly, weekly, monthly, and annual pay. Compare job offers easily.
Pure conversion math: 2,080 hours per year for full-time. Captures gross salary and returns all conversions plus the after-tax net via the Paycheck Calculator's tax engine. Handles part-time + variable schedules.
When comparing offers presented in different denominations (annual salary vs hourly rate), when budgeting on a monthly basis from an annual salary, or when checking if an hourly rate beats minimum wage.
2,080 hours is the standard: 40 hours × 52 weeks. Subtract paid time off if not included in salary — typically 2-3 weeks PTO + 6-10 holidays = roughly 1,920-1,960 worked hours per year.

$50 an hour is about $4,000 every two weeks and $8,667 a month in gross pay, based on a 40-hour week.
Divide annual by 2,080 for the gross. A $60K salary = $28.85/hr gross. For net: divide annual take-home (typically ~75% of gross in a moderate-tax state) by 2,080. The calculator runs the full tax engine to give an accurate net.
Biweekly × 26 = annual. Annual ÷ 12 = monthly. NOT biweekly × 2 — there are 26 biweekly pay periods per year, not 24. Two months per year have three paychecks.
Add them to the gross annual input. Bonus and commission are taxed as supplemental income — federal withholding rate is 22% (37% above $1M), which sometimes feels higher than your regular paycheck rate. The converter applies the supplemental rate when you mark income as bonus.
Use a 12-month rolling average as the annual input. For sales reps on 100% commission, project a conservative number (lower 50% of last year's range) to budget against — anything more is upside.
Paycheck Calculator focuses on take-home per pay period, including pre/post-tax deductions. Salary Converter is denomination-conversion first; take-home is a secondary output. Use Paycheck when planning per-paycheck cash flow; use Salary Converter when comparing offers.
