Hourly Wage to Annual Salary Calculator

Calculating take-home pay from an hourly wage involves more steps than salaried workers: you must first annualize your income (hourly rate × hours/week × 52 weeks), then apply federal income tax, FICA, and state income tax to the annual figure, then divide back to a per-period amount.

Overtime pay (typically 1.5× base rate) is taxed as supplemental income under the IRS percentage method — the same marginal rate as your regular wages, since all income is combined annually. This calculator handles overtime hours and rate separately so you can see its exact impact on your paycheck.

For hourly workers, pay can vary significantly by week, which affects annual income and thereby tax bracket placement. This tool uses your stated weekly hours as a base, with overtime as an additional input. The resulting net-per-hour calculation shows exactly how much of each hour worked you actually take home — a useful metric for evaluating job offers or raises.
