Hourly to Salary Calculator
An hourly to salary calculator helps you convert hourly wage into estimated annual gross salary by using regular hours per week, weeks worked per year, and overtime assumptions.
Quick answer
Regular weekly pay is hourly rate times regular hours.
What this tells you
- •Regular weekly pay is hourly rate times regular hours.
- •Optional overtime pay uses overtime hours and overtime multiplier.
- •This tool estimates gross income, not net take-home pay.
How to Use
- 1Enter hourly wage, total hours per week, and weeks worked per year.
- 2Add overtime hours and overtime multiplier if needed.
- 3Calculate to see estimated annual, monthly, and weekly gross income.
How It Works
Formula
Weekly gross = (regular hours x hourly rate) + (overtime hours x hourly rate x overtime multiplier)
Annual salary = weekly gross x weeks per yearThe calculator separates regular and overtime earnings and annualizes the resulting weekly gross estimate.

- Ignoring unpaid leave or seasonal schedule changes
- Assuming all overtime is paid at the same multiplier
