Hourly Pay Calculator
Convert an hourly wage and weekly schedule into approximate weekly, monthly and annual gross earnings.
Gross pay versus take-home pay
Gross pay is the amount before withholding or other deductions. A full-time 40-hour week does not always mean 52 paid weeks. Use your expected paid weeks, overtime rules and employer-specific information.
Three practical techniques
| Step | What to do |
|---|---|
| Input assumptions | Confirm the meaning of every value and whether it represents dollars, hours or a rate. |
| Test an edge case | Try zero interest where supported or a small easy-to-check example to verify the arithmetic. |
| Sanity check | Compare results with a manual calculation before using them for a financial decision. |
