Frequently Asked Questions
How do I convert hourly wage to annual salary?
Multiply your hourly rate by the hours worked per week, then multiply by 52 weeks. For a standard 40-hour week: rate x 40 x 52. For example, $30/hour x 40 x 52 = $62,400/year. Our calculator does this instantly.
What is the difference between gross and net pay?
Gross pay is your total earnings before any deductions — the number you agree to with your employer. Net pay (take-home pay) is what you actually receive in your bank account after taxes, health insurance, retirement contributions, and other deductions are subtracted.
How many hours per week are standard?
A standard full-time work week is 40 hours. Part-time varies from 20-35 hours per week. Some industries consider 37.5 hours as full-time. Always check your employment contract for your specific hours.
What is the difference between exempt and non-exempt employees?
Exempt employees are salaried and not eligible for overtime pay — they're paid for the job, not by the hour. Non-exempt employees are typically paid hourly and must receive overtime pay (1.5x) for hours worked beyond 40 per week under the Fair Labor Standards Act.
How do I convert hourly to annual salary?
Multiply your hourly rate by the number of hours you work per week, then multiply by 52 weeks. For example, $25/hour x 40 hours x 52 weeks = $52,000/year. Remember that this is gross pay before taxes and deductions.
