Formula

Annual Wage depends on pay frequency:

  • Hourly: Hourly Wage × Hours per Week × Weeks per Year
  • Weekly: Weekly Pay × Weeks per Year
  • Biweekly: Biweekly Pay × (Weeks per Year ÷ 2)
  • Semi-monthly: Pay × 24
  • Monthly: Pay × 12

Monthly Wage = Annual Wage ÷ 12

Weekly Wage = Annual Wage ÷ Weeks per Year

Hourly Wage = Weekly Wage ÷ Hours per Week

For hourly workers with overtime, adjust weekly pay before conversion or run a separate scenario that includes overtime multipliers.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do overtime hours factor in?

Increase the weekly pay to include overtime earnings, or reduce weeks per year if overtime is seasonal to create separate scenarios.

Can this handle zero-hour contracts?

Yes—use your average weekly pay and hours based on historical data to estimate annual earnings.

Does it include taxes?

No. Results show gross wages only. Use take-home calculators to estimate net income after withholding and benefits.

What if I work fewer weeks?

Reduce the weeks per year field to reflect your schedule (e.g., 40 weeks for teachers or seasonal workers) to get an accurate annual wage.
