How do I convert an hourly wage to a salary?
Multiply your hourly wage by the hours you work in a week, then by the weeks you are paid in a year. A full-time year is 40 hours for 52 weeks, which is 2,080 hours. So $25 an hour is $25 × 2,080 = $52,000 a year.
Part-time, the same wage gives less: $25 an hour for 30 hours a week is $39,000 a year. If two weeks of your year are unpaid, use 50 weeks: $25 an hour full-time is then $50,000.

Texas has no state income tax. California’s figure includes its income tax and SDI. Every other state: the paycheck calculator.
What is my salary as an hourly rate?
Divide the salary by 2,080, the hours in a full-time year. Each salary links to its full paycheck in the calculator.
How much of my hourly pay do I keep after taxes?
Three taxes come out of every paycheck: federal income tax, Social Security and Medicare. Most states take an income tax too. At $25 an hour, a single filer in Texas keeps about $21.14 of each hour’s pay. In California it is about $20.29, because the state takes income tax and SDI as well. A few states, such as Washington and New Jersey, also take small insurance contributions from pay; the figures here include them.
The take-home figure spreads the year’s tax evenly over every hour you work. Your paycheck shows the same taxes week by week: see your own in the paycheck calculator, which takes an hourly wage too, or on your state’s page, such as the California paycheck calculator.
What does this leave out?
- Overtime, tips, bonuses, a second job and any income other than this job.
- Anything taken out before tax, such as a 401(k) or health insurance. The paycheck calculator has these.
- Dependents, and credits such as the child tax credit.
- California’s exemption credit shrinking at high incomes (from about $250,000 for a single filer).
- Virginia’s spouse tax adjustment, and Ohio’s joint filing credit, for married couples who both earn.
- Georgia’s 2026 tax break on some overtime pay and tips.
- City and local income taxes other than New York City’s, such as Detroit’s, Ohio city taxes and Pennsylvania’s local earned income tax.
