Hi,


The answer is not straight forwards.  If you assume that there are some 2000 to 2500 net working hours a year than he is making some 30,000 / 2,500 (= 20 $/hr) or 30,000 / 2,000 ( = 15 $/hr).  
If you assume that he earns 30,000 $ in a constant rate every hour (day / night / weekends / hollidays) than you should devide 30,000 by 24 * 360 ........ 
Best regards,

Is he working full time?

How many hours a week?

How many days off?

Once you have all the numbers, just divide 30K by the accumulated numbers of hours.
