Salary Calculator
This salary calculator converts your income between eight common pay frequencies — hourly, daily, weekly, bi-weekly, semi-monthly, monthly, quarterly, and annually — so you can compare offers and understand what a wage really adds up to. Enter any one figure and the full conversion table fills in instantly.
It also shows both unadjusted and adjusted values side by side, so you can see how holidays, vacation days, and your real work schedule change your effective hourly rate. Add overtime hours and deductions to go from gross pay all the way to your net take-home amount.
How to Use the Salary Calculator
Enter your salary and frequency
Type your amount in Salary Amount and pick its Pay Frequency from the dropdown — for example 55000 Annually or 26.44 Hourly. The conversion table updates as you type.
Review the conversion table
See your pay across all eight frequencies, with your selected one highlighted. Both Unadjusted and Adjusted columns appear side by side for easy comparison.
Set your work schedule
Adjust Hours per Day, Days per Week, Holidays per Year, and Vacation Days per Year. Holidays and vacation reshape the Adjusted column to reflect your real effective rate.
Add overtime (optional)
Open the Overtime panel, enter your weekly OT hours, and choose a rate of 1.5x, 2x, or a custom multiplier. You get extra income per week, per month, and per year.
Add deductions (optional)
Open the Deductions panel and click Add Deduction for each tax or expense. Set each one as a percentage of gross or a fixed monthly amount to see your net take-home pay.
Change currency (optional)
Use the currency picker at the top to switch currencies. The default amount and number formatting adjust to suit the currency you choose.
Features
Eight Pay Frequency Conversions
Convert in real time between hourly, daily, weekly, bi-weekly (26 periods/year), semi-monthly (24 periods/year), monthly, quarterly, and annual pay.
Unadjusted vs Adjusted
Compare two columns at once: a full-year figure and one that factors in holidays and vacation to reveal your true effective pay rate.
Customizable Work Schedule
Set hours per day and days per week so hourly and daily rates stay accurate — handy for part-time or non-standard schedules.
Holiday & Vacation Adjustments
Enter holidays and vacation days per year and the Adjusted column shows a higher effective rate, since the same pay covers fewer working hours.
Overtime Income Calculator
Choose a 1.5x or 2x preset, or enter a custom multiplier, to see overtime earnings per week, per month, and per year.
Deductions Manager
Add multiple deductions, each as a percentage of gross or a fixed monthly amount, for taxes, insurance, and other withholdings.
Net Salary Summary
A clear summary shows gross income, total deductions, and net take-home pay for both the year and the month.
Currency Picker
Switch currencies and the calculator adjusts symbols, number formatting, and the default amount to fit each currency's scale.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I convert an hourly wage to an annual salary?
Enter your rate as Hourly and the table shows the annual equivalent instantly. The math multiplies your hourly rate by the work hours in a year — by default 8 hours/day × 5 days/week × 52 weeks = 2,080 hours. Adjust hours per day and days per week if your schedule differs.
How is take-home (net) pay calculated from gross?
Add entries in the Deductions panel. Each percentage deduction (such as income tax) is applied to your gross annual salary, and each fixed monthly deduction (such as insurance) is multiplied by 12. Both are subtracted from gross to give your net annual and net monthly take-home pay.
What is the difference between gross and net pay?
Gross pay is your full salary before anything is taken out. Net pay is what actually lands in your account after taxes, insurance, and other deductions. The deductions summary lists gross income, total deductions, and the resulting net amount so you can see the gap clearly.
How many work hours are in a year?
A standard full-time year is 2,080 hours (8 hours/day × 5 days/week × 52 weeks) — the unadjusted basis. When you add holidays and vacation days, those hours come out of the total, so the Adjusted column spreads the same salary over fewer hours and shows a higher effective rate.
What is the difference between unadjusted and adjusted salary?
Unadjusted assumes you work every scheduled day with no time off — the way salaries are usually quoted. Adjusted accounts for holidays and vacation days, so because you work fewer days for the same annual pay, your effective hourly and daily rates come out higher.
What is the difference between bi-weekly and semi-monthly?
Bi-weekly means you are paid every two weeks, giving 26 pay periods a year. Semi-monthly means you are paid twice a month on fixed dates, giving 24 periods. Bi-weekly paychecks are slightly smaller but you receive two extra paychecks per year compared with semi-monthly.
How is overtime calculated?
Overtime income is your base hourly rate × the rate multiplier × weekly overtime hours. For example, $25/hour at 1.5x for 10 hours is $25 × 1.5 × 10 = $375 per week. The monthly and annual totals are derived from that weekly figure.
