Standard Conversion Factors
For consistency, this calculator uses the most common conventions in finance and payroll across North America and many global regions. These standards allow for a fair comparison between different compensation packages:
- **Weekly Pay Periods:** 52 (52 weeks in a year).

Hourly Rate Calculation
When converting an annual salary ($S$) to an hourly rate ($H$), the standard formula is: $$ H = \frac{S}{52 \times \text{Hours/Week}} $$ Similarly, to calculate annual salary from an hourly rate, the formula is: $$ S = H \times 52 \times \text{Hours/Week} $$
