How to use

How it is calculated
New salary = current salary × (1 + raise % ÷ 100)
Example
A salary of 10,000 with an 8% raise means an 800 increase and a new salary of 10,800.
Important notes
Decide whether the entered salary is monthly or annual and keep the same unit before and after the increase.
Worked examples and interpreting results

Frequently asked questions
Should the raise apply to base or total pay?
Use the employer's rule; the calculator applies the percentage only to the figure you enter.
Is the result a guaranteed take-home pay?
No. Taxes, insurance, allowances and deductions vary by employer and jurisdiction; use the calculator as a mathematical estimate only.
Should time periods be consistent?
Yes. When comparing pay, hours or deductions, keep the same period so weekly, monthly and annual figures are not mixed.
