How this salary calculator works

This salary calculator converts a pay amount from one pay period into other common pay periods. You can start with annual, monthly, biweekly, weekly, daily, or hourly pay and instantly see equivalent pay amounts across the rest of the schedule.

The calculator uses your selected hours per week, days per week, and weeks per year to estimate daily and hourly rates. You can also subtract unpaid vacation weeks to get a more realistic work-year estimate.

What affects salary conversions?

  • Your weekly work hours
  • Your days worked per week

  • Any unpaid time off during the year

Common uses

  • Compare hourly jobs to salaried roles
  • Convert annual salary into monthly budget numbers
  • Estimate weekly or biweekly checks
  • Understand a job offer in different pay periods

Salary conversion formulas

The calculator first converts your pay into an annual amount, then derives the other pay periods from that number.

Annual Pay = Hourly Pay × Hours per Week × Weeks Worked per Year Monthly Pay = Annual Pay ÷ 12 Biweekly Pay = Annual Pay ÷ 26 Weekly Pay = Annual Pay ÷ Weeks Worked per Year Daily Pay = Weekly Pay ÷ Days per Week Hourly Pay = Weekly Pay ÷ Hours per Week

Example

If you earn $60,000 per year, your estimated monthly pay is $5,000 and your biweekly pay is about $2,307.69. If you work 40 hours per week for 52 weeks, your hourly equivalent is about $28.85.

Salary Calculator FAQ

Can I convert hourly pay to salary?

Yes. Enter your hourly pay, then set your weekly hours and weeks worked per year. The calculator will estimate annual salary and other pay periods.

Does this calculator account for taxes?

No. This calculator shows gross pay before taxes and deductions. For take-home pay, use a paycheck or income tax calculator.

Why does unpaid vacation change my annual pay?

Unpaid vacation reduces the number of weeks worked in the year, which lowers annual pay when you start from an hourly, daily, or weekly amount.

What is biweekly pay?

Biweekly pay usually means you are paid once every two weeks, which commonly results in 26 paychecks per year.

Is daily pay based on 5 workdays?

By default, yes. You can change the days per week field if your schedule is different.
