Convert pay between hourly, weekly, monthly, and annual figures — useful for comparing a job offer quoted one way against a salary quoted another. A rough US federal take-home estimate is included below the converter.

LiveHow pay periods convert
Every conversion routes through an annual figure first, using 52 weeks per year:
$30/hour at 40 hours/week: 30 × 40 × 52 = $62,400/year, or $5,200/month, or $1,200/week.
Step-by-step guide
- Enter your pay amount and select the period it's quoted in.
- Enter your typical hours per week if you're converting from an hourly rate — this matters a lot for part-time work.
- Read the converted figures above, and optionally check the rough take-home estimate below.

Frequently asked questions
How accurate is the take-home estimate?
It's a rough estimate: US federal tax (2026 brackets) plus FICA (7.65%) only. It excludes state income tax, retirement contributions, health insurance premiums, and other paycheck deductions — your actual take-home will differ.
What if I work overtime?
This calculator uses a flat hours-per-week figure. If your overtime is paid at a different rate, calculate your regular and overtime pay separately and add the two annual figures together.
Does this work for salaried (non-hourly) roles?
Yes — select "Per year" or "Per month" directly if you already have a salary figure, and skip the hours-per-week field.
