Gross pay estimates
How to calculate it
Percentage change = (new pay − current pay) ÷ current pay × 100
($66,000 − $60,000) ÷ $60,000 × 100 = 10%
Know what the result includes
Use the right assumptions
Use annual salary or hourly wage for both amounts. A lower new amount produces a negative percentage. Hourly and weekly equivalents depend on the work schedule and paid weeks you enter.
Frequently asked questions
Can I compare hourly wages?
Yes. Change the pay basis to hourly wage and enter both hourly amounts. The annual change uses your hours per day, days per week, and paid weeks per year.
Does a 10% raise mean 10% more take-home pay?
Not necessarily. The calculator shows the gross change. Taxes and deductions can affect the change in the amount deposited.
