Whether you're negotiating a job offer, comparing an hourly vs. salaried position, or simply planning your budget — knowing how to convert your hourly wage to an annual salary is essential financial literacy.

The Hourly to Yearly Formula

The formula accepted by the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS):

Annual Salary = Hourly Rate × Hours Per Week × Weeks Per Year

For standard full-time (40 hrs/week, 52 weeks = 2,080 hrs/year), our hourly to yearly calculator automates this instantly with a complete salary breakdown.

How Many Work Hours Are in a Year?

  • 2,080 hours — Standard full-time (40 hrs/wk × 52 weeks)
  • 2,000 hours — With 2 weeks unpaid leave (50 weeks × 40)
  • 1,040 hours — Half-time (20 hrs/wk × 52 weeks)
  • 1,560 hours — 30 hrs/week, full year

Hourly vs. Salary: Key Differences

Reverse: Yearly to Hourly

To find hourly rate from annual salary: Hourly = Annual ÷ (Hours/Week × Weeks/Year). Example: $60,000 ÷ 2,080 = $28.85/hr. Try our yearly to hourly calculator.

Biweekly Pay: How It Works

Most U.S. employers pay biweekly (every 2 weeks = 26 paychecks/year). Biweekly = Annual Salary ÷ 26. Example: $52,000 ÷ 26 = $2,000 per paycheck. Note: some months you'll receive 3 paychecks. Use our biweekly salary calculator for full details.
