How it's worked out

Turn the monthly pay into a yearly figure first, then divide by the 2,080 hours in a full-time year: $9,000 × 12 = $108,000, and $108,000 ÷ 2,080 = $51.92 an hour. Don't divide by four weeks: a month is about 4.33 weeks, so that overstates the hourly rate.

These are gross figures, before tax and other deductions, and an estimate: overtime, unpaid time off and bonuses change the real total. To change the hours or weeks, use the salary to hourly calculator.

What changes the real hourly rate

Paid leave: with two weeks of paid vacation you work 50 weeks, so each hour worked is $54. Public holidays off raise it further.

Long weeks: at 45 hours a week the same pay is $46.15 an hour, and at 50 hours $41.54. An hourly job at $51.92 pays overtime on top for those extra hours.

Benefits: health insurance, retirement matching and paid time off are worth money too, so compare whole offers, not only the hourly figure.

Frequently asked questions

How much is $9,000 a month every two weeks?

$4,153.85 before tax, if you're paid every other week (26 paychecks a year). Paid twice a month (24 paychecks) it's $4,500.

Is this before or after tax?

Before tax. These are gross figures: income tax, social security or national insurance, retirement contributions and benefits come out of them, and how much depends on where you live and your own situation. Your pay stub or a local tax calculator gives the take-home amount.

How many hours a year is full time?

2,080: 40 hours a week for 52 weeks. That's the usual figure for converting between hourly and yearly pay in the US. Some employers use 2,087 or 2,088 hours, which changes the hourly rate by a few cents.

What if I work more than 40 hours a week?

Then each hour is worth less: at 45 hours a week, $9,000 a month works out to $46.15 an hour, and at 50 hours $41.54. Salaried jobs that qualify for overtime pay extra on top.

Does paid vacation change the hourly rate?

Your pay stays the same, but you work fewer hours for it. With two weeks of paid leave you work 50 weeks, so $108,000 a year is $54 for each hour actually worked.
