About this calculator

This calculator divides a target income (weekly, monthly or annual) by the number of hours you plan to work to find the hourly rate required to hit that goal, optionally accounting for unpaid time like vacation or admin work.

Freelancers and independent contractors use it when setting a rate for a new client, people considering a job offer paid hourly use it to compare against a salaried role, and side-hustlers use it to see whether a given amount of work time is actually worth it financially.
