Annual to Hourly Salary Calculator
- Browser-based
- No signup
This annual to hourly salary calculator divides yearly pay into an equivalent hourly wage. Enter annual salary, hours per week, and weeks per year to see hourly, monthly, and weekly breakdowns for job comparisons and freelance pricing.
Salaried employees often underestimate their effective hourly rate when unpaid overtime is common—adjust hours upward if that applies.
Benefits and bonus are not in base salary; factor those separately when comparing total compensation.

Frequently asked questions
What is the standard hours divisor?
2,080 hours (40 × 52) is common in the U.S., but your actual schedule may differ.
Should I include bonus in annual salary?
Enter base salary for consistent comparisons; add bonus separately for total comp views.
Does PTO change the math?
If you are paid for PTO, 52 weeks still applies. Unpaid leave reduces effective annual hours.
