How this is calculated

At $20 per hour and a full-time schedule of 40 hours per week for 52 weeks, gross annual pay is $41,600 before tax and deductions (40 × 52 × 20).

This page starts at $20/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 compare offers with the hourly to salary tool.

For after-tax estimates, continue to the paycheck calculator or take-home pay calculator.

Formula

Annual gross = $20 × 40 hours/week × 52 weeks = $41,600 (adjust inputs for your schedule)
