The Math Behind the Tool: The "2080 Hours" Rule
In the United States and many Western countries, a standard full-time work year is considered to be 2,080 hours.
40 hours/week × 52 weeks/year = 2,080 hours.
To calculate your salary manually, simply multiply your Hourly Rate × 2,080.
Example: $25 × 2,080 = $52,000/year.
You can adjust the "Weeks per year" in our calculator if you plan to take unpaid vacation time (e.g., inputting 50 weeks instead of 52).
