Q1: Why 2080 hours?
A: 2080 represents standard full-time work hours (40 hours/week × 52 weeks). Some calculations use 2000 hours to account for 2 weeks vacation.
Q2: Does this include benefits?
A: No, this is base salary conversion only. Benefits like health insurance, retirement contributions, and bonuses are not included.
Q3: How accurate is this for part-time work?
A: Less accurate. For part-time, use actual weekly hours × 52 weeks in the denominator instead of 2080.
Q4: What about overtime pay?
A: Overtime is typically 1.5× this rate for hours worked beyond 40 per week (in the US).
Q5: Does this account for unpaid time off?
A: No, this assumes paid time off. For unpaid leave, adjust the denominator to reflect actual paid hours.
