Examples
Standard full-time. A $75,000 annual salary at 40 hours/week, 52 weeks/year gives an hourly rate of $36.06, monthly pay of $6,250, and weekly pay of $1,442.31.
Part-time hours. A $50,000 salary working 30 hours/week for 52 weeks gives an hourly rate of $32.05 — higher than the standard equivalent because fewer total hours spread the same salary.
Summer break. A $60,000 salary working 40 hours/week for 48 weeks (summer off) gives an hourly rate of $31.25 vs $28.85 at 52 weeks.

What is the difference between weekly, biweekly, and semimonthly?
Weekly is once a week (52 a year), biweekly is every two weeks (26 a year), and semimonthly is twice a month (24 a year). This calculator shows weekly and biweekly using your weeks-per-year figure.
Should I include paid time off as weeks worked?
That depends on how you compare offers. For salaried roles with paid leave, 52 weeks is a fair baseline. For hourly work you do not control, use the weeks you actually expect to work.
