Question 1

How do you convert an hourly wage to an annual salary?

Accepted Answer

Annual = hourly wage × hours per day × days per week × 52 weeks. The calculator uses the work hours and days you enter, so you can match your own schedule instead of assuming a fixed full-time week.

Question 2

How is take-home pay estimated?

Accepted Answer

Take-home is gross pay × (1 − deduction rate). You enter a single deduction percentage that stands in for income tax, social insurance, and other withholdings combined. It is an approximation, not an official tax calculation.

Question 3

Why does it ask for a deduction rate instead of calculating tax?

Accepted Answer

Tax and social-insurance rules differ by country, region, and personal situation, and they change over time. Using a deduction rate keeps the estimate honest and usable anywhere, without pretending to know the exact tax for your jurisdiction.

Question 4

Can I use it for any currency?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The math is currency-agnostic. Pick a symbol just for display and enter your numbers; the conversions apply to any currency.

Question 5

Is my data private?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Every calculation happens locally in your browser. Nothing you type is sent to a server or stored online.
