How this calculator works

This calculator converts an hourly wage to its equivalent annual, monthly, weekly, and daily salary using standard assumptions:

This uses gross figures before taxes. For net take-home pay estimates, try our Paycheck Calculator.

The standard calculation assumes 52 paid weeks per year. Part-time workers, freelancers, and those with unpaid leave should adjust their hours-per-week input accordingly.

Frequently asked questions

How do I convert hourly wage to annual salary?

Multiply your hourly wage by the number of hours you work per week, then multiply by 52 weeks. Formula: Annual Salary = Hourly Wage × Hours per Week × 52.

Is $25 an hour a good salary?

$25 per hour for a standard 40-hour work week equals $52,000 per year. This is slightly above the U.S. median individual income. Whether it's "good" depends on your location and cost of living.

Does this account for overtime?

No — this calculator assumes a fixed hourly rate for all hours worked. Overtime pay (typically 1.5× the regular rate for hours over 40/week) is not included.

What about unpaid time off?

This calculator assumes you work all 52 weeks of the year. If you have unpaid time off, your effective annual salary will be lower. Adjust the hours-per-week input to approximate this.
