How this calculator works
Many employers allow employees to “sell back” unused annual leave or vacation days for cash, paid out at the employee’s standard daily rate of pay.
The formula
Leave Payout = (Annual Salary / Working Days per Year) × Leave Days Sold. This calculates a daily pay rate from your annual salary and standard working-day count, then multiplies by the number of days being sold.
This calculator is for general planning; actual leave payout policies, eligibility, and tax treatment vary by employer and jurisdiction.
