The 2,080 shortcut
A full-time year is 40 hours × 52 weeks = 2,080 hours. To estimate a salary in your head, double the hourly wage and add three zeros: $25 an hour is about $50,000, and the exact figure is $52,000.

Questions people ask
How much is $20 an hour annually?
$41,600 a year before tax at 40 hours a week for 52 weeks. That is about $3,467 a month.
Should I use 52 or 50 weeks?
Use 52 if you get paid vacation and holidays. If time off is unpaid — common for contractors and some hourly jobs — use the number of weeks you actually work.
Does this include overtime?
No. It assumes every hour is paid at the same rate. Add regular overtime by raising hours per week, bearing in mind overtime hours usually pay 1.5×.
