Common Mistakes

❌ Forgetting this is gross pay. Your take-home is 20-35% lower after taxes, insurance, and 401k. This calculator shows pre-tax earnings.

❌ Ignoring unpaid time off. If you get 2 weeks unpaid vacation, you actually work 50 weeks/year. Adjust the weeks field for accuracy.

❌ Not counting commute time. If you commute 1 hour each way, your effective workday is 10 hours, not 8. This significantly lowers your true hourly rate.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I convert salary to hourly?
Divide your annual salary by 2,080 hours (40 hours/week × 52 weeks). For example, $60,000 ÷ 2,080 = $28.85/hour. If you work fewer weeks or different hours, adjust accordingly.
Does this include taxes and benefits?
No, this calculator shows gross (pre-tax) rates. Your take-home pay will be 20-35% lower after federal and state taxes, Social Security, Medicare, health insurance, and 401k contributions.
