Basic Conversion
Hourly to annual: hourly rate × hours/week × 52. For $25/hour at 40 hours/week: $25 × 40 × 52 = $52,000 annually. Remember to account for paid time off.
Comparing Offers
Do not just compare base pay. Consider: health insurance value, retirement matching, PTO days, flexibility, commute costs, and growth potential. A lower salary with better benefits may be worth more.
Questions people ask
How many work hours in a year?
Standard is 2,080 hours (40 hours × 52 weeks). With 2 weeks vacation, it is 2,000 hours. Actual hours vary based on PTO and holidays.
How do I calculate my true hourly rate?
Divide annual salary by hours actually worked. A $100K salary with 50-hour weeks and no overtime is about $38/hour, not the $48/hour it would be at 40 hours.
