How this calculator works

Estimate annual gross pay from hourly pay, hours per week, and weeks worked.. Hourly rate multiplied by expected hours per week and weeks worked gives a simple gross annual estimate. It assumes the hours and weeks are paid. Paid leave, holidays, unpaid breaks, variable schedules and overtime can change the real amount.

Important assumptions

Jobs with the same annual cash pay can have different schedules, commute time and predictability. Estimate expected hours including regular overtime and on-call duties if applicable. Verify overtime eligibility and employment terms rather than assuming rules.

Common mistakes to avoid

  • Mixing units or time periods.
  • Counting the same fee or tax twice.
  • Treating an estimate as a live quote or guarantee.
  • Ignoring maintenance, waste, exceptions or other costs outside the inputs.
