Formula & Worked Example
Hourly Rate = Annual Salary ÷ (Hours per Week × Weeks per Year)
Example
$60,000 salary, 40 hours/week, 52 weeks/year: $60,000 ÷ (40 × 52) = $60,000 ÷ 2,080 = $28.85/hour.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I convert hourly wage to annual salary?
Reverse the formula: Annual Salary = Hourly Rate × Hours per Week × Weeks per Year. For example, $30/hour × 40 × 52 = $62,400 per year.
Should I use 52 weeks or subtract vacation?
If you're salaried and paid for vacation time, use 52 weeks. If you're unpaid during time off, subtract those weeks (e.g., 50 weeks for 2 unpaid weeks) for a more accurate hourly equivalent.
Does this include overtime or benefits?
No — this is a straight conversion of base salary. Overtime (typically 1.5×), bonuses, health insurance, and retirement contributions are not included. Add their annual value to your salary first for a fuller picture.
