If you define biweekly as every two weeks, there are 26 of them.
Whether paid bi-weekly or weekly or never, the number of weeks in the year remains the same - just over 52 weeks.
bi-weekly means every 2 weeks. There are 52 weeks in a year, so there are 52 ÷ 2 = 26 bi-weekly periods. Thus each period would be $55500 ÷ 26 ≈ $2134.62.
2 times If you figure there are 52 weeks in a year, bi-weekly means you get paid 26 times a year. Divide that by the number of months. So 12 goes into 26 twice which means you get paid 2 times each month with 2 months having 3 pay periods.
Based on 365 days per year, [365/7 (days per week) = 52.14 weeks per year] so 52 weeks per year, based on a bi-weekly period = 52/2 = 26 payments per year/12 (Months) = 2.17; therefore, take your monthly payment and divde that by 2.17. (Eg. a $400 monthly payment could be calculated as 400/2.17 = $184.11 bi-weekly.) With this in mind, understand that bi-weekly payments only give you the false impression that you are saving money. In an annual period it will still be the same cost.
