Formula Used

For Percentage Increase:

Percentage Increase = ((New Salary - Current Salary) / Current Salary) x 100

For New Salary by Percentage:

New Salary = Current Salary x (1 + (Percentage Increase / 100))
Example #1

If your old salary was $50,000 and your new salary is $55,000:

  • Current Salary: $50,000
  • New salary is $55,000

Calculating the new salary:

New Salary = [(55,000 - 50,000) / 50,000] 100 = (5,000 / 50,000) x 100 = 10%

Therefore, your salary is increased by 10%.

Example #2

Let's say your current salary is $50,000 and you receive a 5% increase:

  • Current Salary: $50,000
  • Percentage Increase: 5%

Calculating the new salary:

New Salary = $50,000 x (1 + (5 / 100)) = $50,000 x 1.05 = $52,500

Therefore, after a 5% increase, your new salary would be $52,500.
