Salary Hike Calculator
Calculate your new salary after a percentage raise, or the percentage of a raise.
A raise is usually quoted as a percentage, but what you care about is the new number in your bank account — and sometimes the reverse: given an old and new salary, what percentage hike does that represent? Both are quick calculations that are surprisingly easy to fumble under the excitement of an offer.
Enter your current salary and the hike percentage to see your new salary and the absolute increase. It's handy for evaluating an offer, planning a counter, or comparing raises across roles.
