How it is worked out
- $21 × 40 hours = $840 a week
- $840 × 52 weeks = $43,680 a year
- $43,680 ÷ 12 = $3,640 a month; ÷ 26 = $1,680 every two weeks
These are gross figures: pay before income tax and any other deductions. Every hour counts at the same rate, so overtime paid at a higher rate is not in them. For take-home pay, use the paycheck calculator.
