Paid weeks include paid holidays and vacation; subtract unpaid weeks before entering the figure. Enter paid leave days without overlap. Leave reduces hours actually worked, not gross pay. Weekly, biweekly and monthly views average annual pay over 52, 26 and 12 periods; semimonthly uses 24. Daily pay uses your entered working days per week.

Gross pay equivalents
Annual salary = hourly rate × paid hours per week × paid weeks per year. Salary-to-hourly conversion divides annual salary by those paid hours. A five-day, 40-hour week over 52 paid weeks has 2,080 paid hours.
The US Bureau of Labor Statistics converts hourly wages to annual wages using 2,080 hours, a year-round, full-time schedule; this tool lets you enter your own schedule instead and does not apply a statutory payroll divisor. BLS technical notes: https://www.bls.gov/oes/current/oes_tec.htm
Paid leave and pay periods
Daily pay uses hours per week divided by working days per week. Paid leave hours equal holidays plus vacation days, multiplied by those daily hours. Effective hourly pay divides annual gross pay by hours actually worked.
Calendar averages use 52 weeks, 26 biweekly periods, 24 semimonthly periods and 12 months per year. A year with an extra payday or uneven hours can have different payslips. No tax, pension, overtime premium or benefits are calculated.
How to use it
- Enter an hourly rate and choose your paid hours and weeks.
- Enter working days per week and paid holidays and vacation without overlap.
- Compare every pay period and pay per hour actually worked.
