At this time, this calculator does not calculate any type overtime pay, differential pay, holiday pay, or any other type of work that will enhance your wage. This is best for people who have a flat salary to see a breakdown of their pay.
Hourly Wage = Annual Salary Total Hours Worked Per Year
This formula will not take into account variables that can affect your salary such as bonuses, overtime, pay differentials, or any other scenario.
If you are looking to calculate your salary into monthly pay, you can simply divide your salary by 12 to get that number.
For example, if your salary is $60,000, your monthly pay is $5,000.
Calculating your salary into weekly pay is rather simple. Dividing your salary by 52 will give you your weekly pay equivalent. If you are making $78,000 salary, your weekly pay is $1,500.
You may be asking, why would anyone need to know what their salary technically pays per hour? The answer varies per person. But some of the most common reasons include:
Salary refers to the amount of money you agreed to get paid for your work that you do when you are employed. Typically, salaries define the yearly pay out you will recieve after all of your paychecks are added. Sometimes, employers may offer a monthly salary that is guaranteed with the potential to make more o top of that. It can vary by situation.
There is often a misconception about salary and hourly pay that one may be better than the other. They are essentially the same exact thing. If someone is getting a salary with the hourly equivalent of $15 and a person just making $15 per hour, there is no difference in the pay. There may be non-monetary benefits that come with salaried positions over hourly, but that is another topic.
Being able to tell if your salary is good or not requires you to factor in a lot of different variables. If you are located in the US, you can reference this government website to help you determine if you have a good salary or not.
Simply enter your annual salary into the empty field and hit the calculate button. You can alter the hours worked per week and the weeks worked per year if needed, otherwise they are set to the default values that are the most common for the average employee.
At this time you can use the calculator here to do this. Simply enter the annual salary you want or think you have and see what the hourly comes out to be. If you are off by a little continue to alter the salary amount entered until you see the hourly number match your current pay, then you will be able to see the salary your pay is equal to.
If you are someone who works based off of a regular annual salary with no overtime or extra earning potential, then the calculator is 100% correct. It also is calculating for your pre-tax wages. That is something to keep in mind.
Yes, you definitely should use it to help set a reasonable price for you and your services! Identify what your current hourly pay is and then charge clients that, or tack on an extra 10-20% if you feel that is deserved.
