Worked example

$60,000 vs $55,000

A $60,000 salary at 40 hours/week equals $28.85/hour — that's $1,153.85 per week and $5,000 per month (before tax). Now compare: a $55,000 offer at 35 hours/week is actually $30.19/hour. The "smaller" salary pays more per hour.

Frequently asked questions

How do you convert salary to hourly?

Divide annual salary by (weekly hours × 52). So $60,000 ÷ (40 × 52) = $28.85/hour. The calculator above does this instantly, including weekly and monthly breakdowns.

Is the result before or after tax?

Before tax — it's your gross pay. Your take-home depends on federal and state taxes, Social Security, and deductions, which vary a lot by location.

How do I compare a salary offer with an hourly offer?

Convert the salary to hourly with this tool, then compare directly. Don't forget benefits though — health insurance and paid time off have real dollar value.

What about overtime?

Hourly workers in the US typically earn 1.5× for hours over 40 per week. Salaried workers usually don't get overtime — another reason the per-hour comparison matters.
