Salary Calculator — Frequently Asked Questions
Q1 What is the difference between unadjusted and adjusted salary figures? ▾
Unadjusted figures assume standard full-year employment (52 weeks / 2,080 hours). Adjusted figures subtract annual public holidays and paid vacation days to calculate your true hourly rate or actual earnings based on actual days worked.
Q2 How many working hours and working days are in a standard year? ▾
A standard full-time work year consists of 52 weeks × 5 days/week = 260 working days, and 52 weeks × 40 hours/week = 2,080 working hours.
Q3 What is the difference between bi-weekly and semi-monthly paychecks? ▾
Bi-weekly pay occurs every two weeks, resulting in 26 paychecks per year (with two months having 3 paychecks). Semi-monthly pay occurs twice per month (typically on the 1st and 15th), resulting in exactly 24 paychecks per year.
Q4 Where can I estimate my after-tax net paycheck? ▾
