| Hourly | 40hr × 52wk Annual | Per month |
|---|---|---|
| $25/hr | $52,000 | $4,333 |
| $50/hr | $104,000 | $8,667 |
| $75/hr | $156,000 | $13,000 |
| $100/hr | $208,000 | $17,333 |

Note: 1099 freelancers typically don't bill 40 hrs × 52 wks. Realistic billable time is 25 hrs × 48 wks = 1,200 hours, so a $100/hr 1099 rate yields ~$120k gross, not $208k.
