How to Convert Hourly Wage to Salary
Converting your hourly wage to an annual salary is straightforward. The formula is:
For example, if you earn $25/hour, work 40 hours/week, and work 50 weeks/year (2 weeks of unpaid vacation):
- $25 × 40 × 50 = $50,000/year
- $50,000 ÷ 12 = $4,166.67/month
- $50,000 ÷ 26 = $1,923.08/bi-weekly
- $50,000 ÷ 52 = $961.54/week

Frequently Asked Questions
How do you convert hourly wage to annual salary?
To convert hourly wage to annual salary, multiply your hourly rate by the number of hours worked per week, then multiply by 52 weeks. For example, $25/hour × 40 hours/week × 52 weeks = $52,000/year. If you have unpaid vacation, use 50 weeks instead.
How many work hours are in a year?
A full-time worker typically works 2,080 hours per year (40 hours/week × 52 weeks). If you account for 2 weeks of unpaid vacation, the actual working hours are 2,000 (40 × 50). Part-time workers should adjust accordingly.
Is $25 an hour a good salary?
$25/hour equals $52,000/year at 40 hours/week (52 weeks). This is slightly above the US median individual income. Whether it's comfortable depends on your location — in low-cost states it provides a good living, while in high-cost cities like San Francisco or New York, it may be tight.
What's the difference between exempt and non-exempt employees?
Non-exempt employees are paid hourly and must receive overtime pay (1.5× regular rate) for hours over 40/week. Exempt employees are typically salaried and exempt from overtime. This calculator is most relevant for non-exempt hourly workers.
