- 1. Annual paid hours = 40 × 52 = 2,080.
- 2. Annual equivalent = 25 × 2,080 = 52,000.
- 3. Weekly equivalent = 52,000 ÷ 52 = 1,000.
- 4. Daily equivalent = 1,000 ÷ 5 = 200.
Gross arithmetic only: taxes, benefits, bonuses, unpaid leave and overtime are not included unless already reflected in the entered pay amount.
Use paid weeks/year rather than automatically assuming all 52 weeks are paid.

How to use this calculator
Convert hourly pay to an annual equivalent or annual salary back to an hourly equivalent using explicit paid hours per week, paid weeks per year and paid days per week. The calculator also exposes daily, weekly, biweekly and monthly-average equivalents from the same assumptions.
Step-by-step
- Step 1
Choose hourly → annual or annual → hourly.
- Step 2
Enter the pay amount plus paid hours/week, paid weeks/year and paid days/week.
- Step 3
Compare hourly, daily, weekly, biweekly, monthly-average and annual equivalents with the annual paid-hours working shown.
How the result is calculated
Annual paid hours = hours/week × paid weeks/year. Annual pay = hourly rate × annual paid hours; hourly rate = annual salary ÷ annual paid hours.

Common questions
Why can paid weeks per year be less than 52?
Not every schedule pays every calendar week. Using explicit paid weeks avoids silently treating unpaid leave or seasonal gaps as paid time.
Does the monthly number represent an actual paycheck?
No. It is annual equivalent ÷ 12, a monthly average. Real payroll frequency and deductions can differ.
Are taxes, benefits, bonuses or overtime included?
No. This is gross arithmetic unless those amounts are already reflected in the pay amount you enter.
