TOOLSee your salary in every pay period
Job offers and rates come in all shapes — a yearly salary, an hourly wage, a weekly rate. This converter turns an annual salary into monthly, bi-weekly, weekly, daily and hourly pay so you can compare offers fairly and know exactly what each paycheque should look like.
How the conversions work
Monthly = annual ÷ 12 · Bi-weekly = annual ÷ 26 · Weekly = annual ÷ 52
The standard full-time assumption is 40 hours a week over 52 weeks — 2,080 hours a year — but you can change both to match part-time work or unpaid time off.
A quick example
A $60,000 salary at 40 hours/week over 52 weeks works out to about $28.85/hour, $5,000/month, $2,308 bi-weekly, and $1,154/week — all before tax.

All amounts are gross (pre-tax) estimates. Actual take-home pay depends on income tax, benefits, and deductions specific to your situation and location.
Frequently asked questions
How do you convert an annual salary to an hourly wage?
Divide the annual salary by the number of hours worked in a year. At the standard 40 hours a week over 52 weeks (2,080 hours), a $60,000 salary is about $28.85 per hour.
How is monthly pay calculated from a salary?
Divide the annual salary by 12. Bi-weekly pay divides by 26 and weekly divides by 52. These are gross figures before tax and deductions.
Are these figures before or after tax?
They are gross amounts, before income tax, benefits and other deductions. Your take-home pay will be lower depending on your tax situation and where you live.
