From an hourly rate to a salary
Enter your hourly wage and how many hours you work per week, and this tool scales that up to weekly, monthly, and annual figures. The annual number is your hourly rate multiplied by weekly hours multiplied by 52, since a year holds roughly 52 weeks. The monthly figure is that annual total divided by 12, which spreads pay evenly rather than by the exact days in each month.
Everything is computed live in your browser, so you can nudge the hours to compare a 35-, 40-, or 45-hour week instantly.
What the number leaves out
This is gross pay, before tax, insurance, and other deductions, so your take-home will be lower. It also assumes you are paid for every one of those 52 weeks; if you take unpaid leave or the role has no paid vacation, the real annual figure drops accordingly.
Overtime, bonuses, and irregular schedules are not modelled, so treat the result as a clean baseline. To work backwards from a salary to an hourly rate, or to check a percentage raise, pair it with the percentage calculator on UtilGears.

Real-world examples
- $25/hour at 40 hours a week is $1,000/week, about $4,333/month, and $52,000/year gross.
- $15/hour at 30 hours a week works out to $23,400/year before tax.
- Dropping from a 40- to a 35-hour week at $30/hour lowers annual gross from $62,400 to $54,600.
