Salary Calculator
Enter a positive pay amount, positive hours/day and days/week, and 0-52 weeks off.
This converts pay between frequencies only — it doesn't deduct taxes. For actual take-home pay after federal tax and FICA, use the Take-Home-Paycheck Calculator.
Free salary calculator that converts pay between hourly, daily, weekly, biweekly, semi-monthly, monthly, quarterly, and annual — with adjustable hours per day, days per week, and unpaid weeks off. No tax deductions, just conversion.
How it works
- Enter your pay amount and its frequency
- Adjust hours per day, days per week, and any unpaid weeks off
- See your pay converted across every common frequency
Frequently asked questions
Does this calculate my take-home pay after taxes?
No — this is a pure pay-frequency converter, not a tax calculator. It shows how a given rate translates across hourly, weekly, monthly, and other periods. For take-home pay after federal tax and FICA, use the Take-Home-Paycheck Calculator instead.
Why does unpaid weeks off matter?
If you don't work (and aren't paid for) some weeks of the year — common for some hourly, seasonal, or contract roles — your effective hourly rate from an annual figure is different than a straight 52-week division. This lets you account for that.
