How this calculator works
All results are gross pay before tax, benefits and other deductions. Monthly pay is annual pay divided by twelve, while weekly pay is per entered paid week. Unpaid leave, overtime, bonuses and irregular hours are included only if reflected in your inputs.
The formula
Annual = hourly rate × hours/week × paid weeks/year. Hourly = annual / (hours × weeks). Monthly approximation = annual/12.A quick example
At 25 per hour, 40 paid hours a week and 52 paid weeks a year, annual gross pay is 52,000 and average monthly pay is 4,333.33.

A few common questions
Are taxes or overtime calculated?
No. This compares gross equivalents with a fixed schedule; tax and overtime rules require separate treatment.
Should I enter 52 weeks if I take unpaid leave?
Reduce paid weeks to exclude unpaid time. Paid leave can remain included.
