Method, example and limitations
Understand the result before using it
Use the pay calculator to translate gross pay between hourly, weekly and annual periods using the working pattern you enter. It can also model a percentage increase, bonus or unpaid-time cost. It is not a tax, award, superannuation or take-home-pay calculator.
What the tool does
Annual hours equal ordinary hours per week multiplied by paid weeks per year. Hourly equivalent divides annual gross pay by those annual hours. Period conversions use the chosen weeks and hours rather than assuming every worker has a 38-hour, 52-week year.
$78,000 salary, 38 hours a week
- Annual ordinary hours are 38 × 52 = 1,976.
- Hourly gross equivalent is $78,000 ÷ 1,976 = about $39.47.
- A 4% rise produces $81,120 gross per year.
How to read it: An hourly equivalent helps compare working patterns, but it does not determine legal entitlements or account for overtime, leave loading, tax, superannuation or benefits unless explicitly entered.
- Amounts are gross and use one currency.
- Ordinary weekly hours and paid weeks are stable for the comparison.
- Percentage increases apply to the entered base amount.
- Comparing gross salary with after-tax hourly pay.
- Ignoring unpaid weeks or materially different weekly hours.
- Treating the result as an award or payroll-compliance assessment.
