I think this is mostly a US thing. Why use yearly salary? You’re not paid once a year, are you? Most likely once a month. Referencing monthly salary makes much more sense.

“I’m making 50k”. Great, now I have to guess - dollars? Monthly? Yearly? If yearly then what’s the monthly paycheck? Net? Gross?

    Divide your annual salary by 2080 hours/year for the hourly rate.

        The 2080 assumes you’re salaried at the normal 40 hours per week rate. Salaried employees don’t get a variable amount each week if you work more or less hours than normal.
