How this math works

Weekly pay is your wage multiplied by your hours per week. Annual pay is that weekly figure multiplied by the number of weeks you work, and the monthly figure is the annual amount divided by twelve.

All figures are gross, meaning before any taxes or deductions are taken out.

Common questions

Are these numbers before or after taxes?

They are gross figures, before taxes and deductions. Your actual take-home pay will be lower once federal, payroll, and any state taxes come out.

What if I take unpaid time off?

Lower the weeks worked per year to reflect unpaid weeks. Using fewer than 52 weeks gives a more realistic annual total.

How is the monthly figure calculated?

The monthly amount is simply the annual pay divided by twelve, so it spreads the full year evenly across the months.
