How this final salary calculator works
Final salary is usually affected by how many days you worked in your final month, whether you took unpaid leave, whether unused annual leave is encashed, and whether there are other allowances or deductions.
1. Calculate daily salary
The calculator divides monthly salary by working days, calendar days or your company’s custom divisor.
2. Add salary for days worked
Paid days worked are multiplied by daily salary to estimate your prorated final month salary.
3. Add or deduct adjustments
Unused leave, unpaid leave, allowances and deductions are added to estimate final gross salary.
Final salary formula
A simple final salary estimate can be calculated using daily salary, paid days worked, unused leave and deductions.
| Item | Formula | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Daily salary | Monthly salary ÷ days used | Used to calculate prorated salary and leave encashment |
| Salary for days worked | Daily salary × paid days worked | Salary earned for the final month |
| Leave encashment | Daily salary × unused annual leave days | Estimated value of unused annual leave paid out |
| Final salary | Salary worked + leave encashment + other pay - deductions | Estimated final gross salary before CPF and tax |
