Formula
How salary breakdown is estimated
The calculator starts with annual gross salary, then subtracts estimated taxes, retirement contributions, and benefit deductions to estimate take-home pay.
Take-home pay = gross salary − taxes − retirement − benefit deductions
Effective hourly rate = annual salary ÷ annual work hours
Conversion
How hourly pay converts to annual salary
Hourly pay is converted by multiplying hourly rate by weekly hours and weeks worked, then adding overtime pay when overtime hours are entered.
Annual salary = hourly rate × weekly hours × weeks worked
Overtime pay = hourly rate × overtime multiplier × overtime hours × weeks worked
