How it works
A working year is hours per week × weeks per year. With the defaults, that is 40 × 52 = 2,080 paid hours.
Every amount is calculated from exact values and rounded to the cent once. The monthly amount is one twelfth of the year; every 2 weeks is two weeks of pay.
hourly = annual salary ÷ (hours per week × weeks per year)
annual salary = hourly × hours per week × weeks per year
monthly = annual ÷ 12 · every 2 weeks = weekly × 2Limitation. These are gross equivalents for the schedule you enter. They do not include taxes, benefits, overtime, bonuses or unpaid time off.
Note. If you take unpaid weeks off, lower the weeks per year. Paid vacation and holidays count as paid weeks.
