Annual salary = Hourly rate × Hours per week × 52 weeks. For a standard 40-hour week: multiply your hourly rate by 2,080. Example: $25/hr × 2,080 = $52,000/year. For a 37.5-hour week, multiply by 1,950 instead.
How to Convert Hourly Wage to Annual Salary

Annual hours: 40 hrs/week × 52 weeks = 2,080 hours/year
Annual salary: Hourly rate × 2,080
