Converting between salary and hourly pay
A full-time year is usually counted as 40 hours a week for 52 weeks, which is 2,080 hours. So a salary divided by 2,080 gives the hourly rate, and an hourly rate times 2,080 gives the salary. $30 an hour is $62,400 a year; $75,000 a year is about $36.06 an hour.
