Salary Calculator

Annual = hourly rate x hours per week x weeks per year. Reverse it to go the other way: hourly = annual / (hours x weeks). Per paycheck is the annual figure divided by the number of pay periods: 52 weekly, 26 every two weeks, 24 twice monthly, or 12 monthly. All figures here are gross, before tax.

What is 25 dollars an hour a year?

About 52,000 dollars at 40 hours a week for 52 weeks. The quick version is to double the hourly rate and add three zeros, which is accurate whenever the year is a full 2,080 hours.

Is being paid every two weeks the same as twice a month?

No. Every two weeks is 26 paychecks a year, twice a month is 24. The annual total is identical but each check differs by about eight percent, and only the first arrangement gives you two three-check months.

Does this show my take-home pay?

No, these are gross figures. Federal, state and local tax, Social Security, Medicare, insurance and retirement all come out afterwards, and together they commonly take 25 to 35 percent.
