About This Tool

Convert between annual salary and hourly rate instantly. See your effective pay broken down into monthly, bi-weekly, weekly, daily, and hourly amounts. Adjust for vacation time, part-time hours, and different work schedules to see your true earning rate.

This is a gross (before-tax) calculation. Your take-home pay will be lower after federal, state/provincial, and local taxes are deducted.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I convert annual salary to hourly rate?

Divide your annual salary by the number of working hours per year. For a standard 40-hour week with 50 working weeks (2 weeks vacation): $75,000 ÷ 2,000 = $37.50/hour.

What is a good salary?

This varies enormously by location, industry, and experience. In the US, the median household income is roughly $75,000. In Canada, it is about $68,000 CAD. Cost of living in your area matters more than the raw number.

What is the difference between gross and net pay?

Gross pay is your total salary before any deductions. Net pay (take-home pay) is what you actually receive after federal/provincial taxes, CPP/EI (Canada) or Social Security/Medicare (US), and any other deductions.

How to Use the Salary Calculator

Enter any salary figure — annual, monthly, weekly, or hourly — and the calculator converts it to all other time periods. Customize work hours per week and weeks per year for accurate results. The breakdown shows daily, weekly, biweekly, semimonthly, monthly, and annual equivalents.

Why Salary Conversion Matters

Job offers come in different formats. One company quotes $85,000 per year. Another offers $42 per hour. A freelance contract pays $7,000 per month. Comparing these requires converting to a common base. This calculator makes that instant.

Freelancers especially need this to set hourly rates. If you want to earn $100,000 per year working 48 weeks at 35 billable hours per week, your hourly rate needs to be $59.52 — not $48 as a simple division by 2,080 standard hours would suggest.
