The Conversion Formulas

All salary conversions are based on the standard assumptions of 52 weeks per year and 40 hours per week (2,080 working hours per year):

• Annual to Hourly: Annual Salary / 2,080
• Annual to Monthly: Annual Salary / 12
• Annual to Biweekly: Annual Salary / 26
• Annual to Weekly: Annual Salary / 52
• Hourly to Annual: Hourly Rate x 2,080
• Hourly to Monthly: Hourly Rate x 173.33 (2,080 / 12)
• Monthly to Annual: Monthly Salary x 12
• Monthly to Hourly: Monthly Salary / 173.33

Biweekly vs Semi-Monthly — The 2 Extra Paychecks

These are commonly confused but significantly different:

Pay Schedule	Frequency	Paychecks/Year	Example ($60K Annual)
Biweekly	Every 2 weeks (e.g., every other Friday)	26 paychecks	$2,308 per check
Semi-monthly	Twice per month (e.g., 1st and 15th)	24 paychecks	$2,500 per check
Monthly	Once per month	12 paychecks	$5,000 per check
Weekly	Every week	52 paychecks	$1,154 per check

Biweekly pay gives you 2 "extra" paychecks per year compared to semi-monthly. Some months you will get 3 paychecks instead of 2 — this happens twice per year. Budget accordingly.

When Salary vs Hourly Matters Most

• Job offer comparison: One offer is $85,000/year, the other is $43/hour. Which pays more? $43 x 2,080 = $89,440 — the hourly offer pays $4,440 more (assuming 40 hours/week and no overtime).
• Freelance rate setting: You earn $70,000 at your full-time job. Your equivalent hourly rate is $33.65. Your freelance rate should be higher (typically 1.3-1.5x) to cover self-employment tax, benefits, and downtime — so $44-50/hour minimum.
• Raise negotiation: A $5,000 annual raise sounds modest. But that is $2.40/hour more — a meaningful increase when you frame it in per-paycheck terms: $192 more per biweekly check.
• Part-time income: A part-time job at $20/hour for 25 hours/week = $26,000/year. Knowing the annual equivalent helps with tax planning and budgeting.

Honest Limitations

This calculator converts gross salary between time periods. It does not calculate take-home pay after taxes, since tax rates depend on your state, filing status, deductions, pre-tax contributions (401k, HSA), and other factors. For net pay estimates, use a paycheck calculator that accounts for federal and state taxes. Also, the 2,080-hour standard assumes 40 hours/week for all 52 weeks — if your company gives unpaid time off, your effective hourly rate is higher.
