    Understanding Growth & Increases

    A percentage increase calculator is useful when you want to find the final value after applying a certain percentage growth to a base number. For example, if you want to know what your new salary will be after a 5% raise, or how much a product will cost after adding 15% tax, this is the tool you need. Unlike the 'Percentage Change' tool which finds the percentage between two known numbers, this tool finds the unknown end-result based on a known percentage change. You can also use negative numbers in the percentage field to calculate a percentage decrease!
