Converting hourly pay to a salary

The standard conversion assumes 40 hours a week for 52 weeks, or 2,080 paid hours a year. A quick shortcut is to double the hourly rate and add three zeros: $32 an hour is roughly $64,000. The exact figure is $66,560.

If you take unpaid time off or work part-time, change the hours and weeks. Paid vacation and holidays count as worked weeks because you’re still paid for them.

Common questions

How do I convert hourly to salary?

Multiply your hourly rate by hours per week, then by weeks per year. At 40 hours and 52 weeks that’s 2,080 hours, so $32 an hour × 2,080 = $66,560.

How much is $20 an hour per year?

$41,600 at 40 hours a week for 52 weeks. That’s $3,466.67 a month or $1,600 every two weeks before taxes.

Should I count vacation weeks?

Count paid vacation and holidays, since you’re paid for them. Subtract only unpaid weeks: two unpaid weeks off means 50 weeks, or 2,000 hours.

Is a salary the same as hourly pay × 2,080?

Only if the hours stay the same. Salaried roles often come with more hours, different benefits or bonus eligibility, so compare total compensation rather than the base number alone.

How this is calculated

Method
Annual salary = hourly rate × hours per week × weeks per year.
Monthly = annual ÷ 12. Biweekly = annual ÷ 26. Weekly = annual ÷ 52.
Daily = hourly rate × 8.
Assumptions
  • Hours are the same every week, with no overtime.
  • Paid time off is included in weeks worked.
  • Tax estimate uses 2026 federal brackets and the standard deduction, with no other income or credits.
