15 dollars a hour 40 hours a week is how much a year?

to figure this out, you have some variables assuming vacation of 2 weeks. also, you have to assume you are going to work all 50 weeks and get paid leave for when you don't, because unlike a salary, your yearly wage is dependent on how much you actually work.

roughly, 40 hours a week, 50 weeks a year yields 2000 hours worked in the year. multiply 2000 by 15 and you get $30k a year.
