Pay Raise Calculator
Inputs and units
Use the units shown for Current annual salary ($), New annual salary ($). Required fields cannot be blank. Use zero only where that field and the model allow it. Select Calculate after changing a scenario.
Method and assumptions
Dollar increase is new annual pay minus old annual pay. Percentage raise divides that change by positive old pay. A raise from zero has no defined percentage.
Worked example
Old pay zero and new pay 1,000 show an increase of 1,000 with an undefined percentage.
Limitations
Pay values are assumed annual. Taxes, hours, benefits and bonus changes are excluded.
