It depends on what your speciality is, area of the country, and whether it's a teaching hospital or community hospital etc..

Divide these figures by 2000 to get hourly figures.

"At a top level, the recently released National Sample Survey of Registered Nurses for 2000, conducted by the Health Resources and Services Administration, shows that the average annual salary of full-time Registered Nurses has increased to $46,782.

The Bureau of Labor Statistics reports that in 1998, half of all registered nurses earned more than $40,690. The middle 50 percent earned between $34,430 and $49,070 a year. The highest 10 percent earned more than $69,300 a year, and the lowest 10 percent earned less than $29,480. Many employers offer flexible work schedules, child care, educational benefits, and bonuses.

From the same page, regarding BSNs.

"In 2000, only 10% of those with Associate Degrees earned more than $50,000 per year, while 16% of BSN's, and a whopping 40% of MSN's earned more than $50,000. This shows the powerful effect on earnings potential when you pursue advanced nursing education."

Hope that helps.
