Pay Raise Calculator
Calculate your raise amount and percentage, whether you know your new pay or just the raise percentage you were offered.
New pay
$63,000.00
What Your Result Means
The raise amount is the dollar difference between your old and new pay. The raise percentage expresses that same increase relative to your original pay, making it easy to compare offers or benchmark against typical annual raise percentages.
How It Is Calculated
Raise % = (New Pay - Current Pay) / Current Pay × 100
If you enter a target raise percentage instead, Calqora calculates your new pay by applying that percentage to your current pay.
Worked Example
Going from a $60,000 salary to $63,000 is a $3,000 raise, or 5%. Conversely, a 5% raise on $60,000 results in the same $63,000 new salary.
Important Assumptions
- Works with any pay frequency, as long as current and new pay use the same frequency (both annual, both hourly, etc.).
Frequently Asked Questions
- What's a typical annual raise percentage?
