Enter the amount of PTO days accrued and the amount of days worked into the Accrual Rate Calculator. The calculator will evaluate the Accrual Rate.

## Accrual Rate Formula

The following two example problems outline the steps and information needed to calculate the Accrual Rate.

ACR = DA / DW
• Where ACR is the Accrual Rate (accrued days per work day)
• DA is the amount of PTO days accrued
• DW is the amount of days worked

To calculate the accrual rate, divide the amount of PTO days accrued by the amount of days worked.

## How to Calculate Accrual Rate?

The following example problems outline how to calculate Accrual Rate.

Example Problem #1:

1. First, determine the amount of PTO days accrued.
• The amount of PTO days accrued is given as: 10.
2. Next, determine the amount of days worked.
• The amount of days worked is provided as: 150.
3. Finally, calculate the Accrual Rate using the equation above:

ACR = DA / DW

The values provided above are inserted into the equation below and computed.

ACR = 10 / 150 = .066 (accrued days per work day)

Example Problem #2:

For this problem, the variables required are provided below:

amount of PTO days accrued = 60

amount of days worked = 600
