Bi-weekly vs semi-monthly

Bi-weekly: paid every 2 weeks = 26 checks/year. Semi-monthly: paid on the 1st and 15th = 24 checks/year. They look similar but the math differs โ€” bi-weekly checks are slightly smaller.

Working hours assumption

Standard full-time: 40 hours ร— 52 weeks = 2,080 hours/year. Common alternatives: 1,920 (4 weeks PTO unpaid), 2,000 (8-hour ร— 250 days), or 1,800 (heavy time-off culture). Adjust hourly conversion accordingly.

Gross vs net

This calculator shows gross (pre-tax) figures. Take-home is typically 60-75% of gross depending on filing status, state, and benefits. Use the Take-Home Pay Calculator for net estimates.
