How this is calculated
At $15 per hour and a full-time schedule of 40 hours per week for 52 weeks, gross annual pay is $31,200 before tax and deductions (15 × 40 × 52). Monthly gross is about $2,600 and biweekly gross is about $1,200.
This page starts at $15/hour but lets you adjust hours and weeks if you work part-time or take unpaid time off. All figures are gross — not take-home pay.
After you know the gross total, estimate taxes with the paycheck calculator or a state page for your location.
For after-tax estimates, continue to the paycheck calculator or take-home pay calculator.
Annual gross = $15 × 40 hours/week × 52 weeks = $31,200 (adjust inputs for your schedule)
