How the math works

$32.00 × 40 hours = $1,280.00 a week, and $1,280.00 × 52 weeks = $66,560.00 a year. Monthly pay is the yearly total ÷ 12, so $5,546.67; a month averages 4.33 weeks, not 4. Biweekly pay is the yearly total ÷ 26 = $2,560.00. Amounts are rounded to the nearest cent.

The 45-hour row pays the 5 hours over 40 at time and a half ($48.00 an hour), the federal overtime rule for non-exempt employees. All rows assume 52 paid weeks. With two unpaid weeks off (50 weeks at 40 hours), $32 an hour comes to $64,000 a year.

Compared with the federal minimum wage

$32 an hour is $24.75 more than the federal minimum wage of $7.25, or 4.41 times as much. Full time, the federal minimum comes to $15,080 a year, so $32 an hour earns $51,480 more per year. Many states have their own minimum wage laws, and some require more than the federal rate, so check your state.
