When to use this calculator
Use this to compare an old and new salary expressed over the same pay period. It is useful for checking an offer, promotion or completed pay review when you know both salary figures.
Formula
The calculator uses this formula:
Increase % = (New salary − Old salary) ÷ Old salary × 100
Figures are rounded for display. Calculations use the full entered values.
Worked examples
$60,000 to $66,000 is a 10% increase.
What your result means
The percentage change measures the difference relative to the old salary—not the new salary. A negative result means the new salary is lower, while the salary difference shows the cash change in the selected currency.
Common mistakes to avoid
- Comparing monthly pay with annual pay.
- Reversing the old and new salary fields.
- Using zero as the old salary, which makes a percentage comparison undefined.
Assumptions and limitations
- Both figures use the same currency and pay period.
- The comparison is gross-to-gross or net-to-net, not a mixture.
- Benefits and variable compensation are outside the calculation.
