Example
At $11.00 per hour, working 40 hours a week for 52 weeks: 11 × 40 × 52 = $22,880 a year. That is $1,907 a month, $880 per biweekly paycheck, $440 a week, or $88 for an 8-hour day.
How it works
Annual salary = hourly rate × hours per week × 52. The standard full-time year is 2,080 hours (40 × 52). Employers that give paid vacation still pay for those weeks, so 2,080 is the right multiplier for salaried equivalence; if you take unpaid weeks off, multiply by the weeks you actually work instead. The after-tax figures below apply the 2025 federal brackets and the $15,000 single standard deduction plus 7.65% FICA — state and local taxes are not included.
Good to know
After federal taxes, $11 an hour is roughly $20,342 a year take-home ($1,695 a month) for a single filer with no other income in 2025. The estimate: $22,880 gross, minus $1,750 FICA (7.65%), minus $788 federal income tax after the standard deduction — an effective combined rate of about 11.1%. State income tax, retirement contributions, and health premiums will move this figure.
Part-time at the same rate:
- 20 hours/week: $11,440 a year
- 25 hours/week: $14,300 a year
- 30 hours/week: $17,160 a year
- 35 hours/week: $20,020 a year
For context, the federal minimum wage is $7.25 an hour ($15,080 a year full-time), so $11 an hour is about 1.5× the federal floor. Many states and cities set higher minimums, and typical market rates vary widely by role and region — use this page as the arithmetic, not a wage benchmark.
When comparing an hourly offer to a salaried one, look past the annual number: salaried roles often include paid time off, employer health premiums, and retirement matching that hourly roles may not. Overtime works the other way — non-exempt hourly workers earn 1.5× beyond 40 hours a week under the FLSA, which salaried-exempt employees don't get.
