Daily Rate

Convert an hourly rate into daily, weekly and annual pay.

About Daily Rate

The hourly rate is multiplied by hours per day and days per week, then scaled to a 52-week annual figure. A single hourly number is hard to compare across jobs, so daily, weekly and annual views reveal the real earnings gap.

Formula

Daily = hourly x hours/day; weekly = daily x days/week; annual = weekly x 52
