How it's calculated
hourly = annual ÷ (h × w) (reverse: annual = hourly × h × w)
annual = yearly salary, hourly = pay per hour, h = hours per week, w = weeks worked per year.
Common questions
How do I convert salary to hourly?
Divide the annual salary by the hours you work per year. At 40 hours a week for 52 weeks that is 2,080 hours, so 52,000 dollars is 25 dollars an hour.
Why let me change weeks per year?
If you take unpaid weeks off, your real hours per year drop, which raises the effective hourly rate the salary represents.
