Annual salary calculator: hourly, monthly and yearly pay

Hourly versus annual salary

An hourly rate times the hours you work in a year gives annual pay. With 40 hours a week for 52 weeks, that is 2,080 hours, but unpaid leave or overtime will change your real earnings.

How to convert monthly pay to annual pay

Multiply monthly pay by 12. To go the other way, divide annual pay by 12.

How to compare job offers

Put both offers on the same basis, usually annual gross pay, then look at the hourly equivalent to see what each hour of work is paid.

How working hours affect your hourly rate

The same salary paid for 50 hours a week is a lower hourly rate than for 40. Change the hours above to see the difference.

Currency conversion limits

Exchange rates move constantly and differ between providers. This tool does not fetch live rates, so you enter one you trust when comparing two currencies.

Gross salary versus take-home pay

Every figure here is gross pay. Tax, insurance, pension and other deductions vary by country and person, so take-home pay will be lower.
