How to Use This Pay Raise Calculator
This free Pay Raise Calculator helps you quickly estimate your new pay after a raise. It works for hourly workers, salaried employees, and anyone who wants to compare old pay vs. new pay after a salary increase.
How to Calculate a Pay Raise
- Select your pay frequency, such as hourly or annually.
- Choose the calculator mode based on what information you already know.
- Enter your current pay and either raise percentage, raise amount, or new pay.
- Tap Calculate to see your raise amount, new pay, and annual increase.
Pay Raise Formula
New Pay = Current Pay × (1 + Raise % ÷ 100)
Raise % = ((New Pay − Old Pay) ÷ Old Pay) × 100
Raise Amount = New Pay − Current Pay
Hourly vs Salary Raise
If you are paid hourly, this calculator can estimate your weekly, monthly, and yearly earnings based on your hours per week and weeks per year. If you are salaried, it converts your pay into comparable weekly and hourly values where useful.
Common Raise Examples
- $20/hour with a 10% raise = $22/hour
- $50,000 salary with a 5% raise = $52,500 salary
- $800 weekly pay with a $50 raise = $850 weekly pay
Why Use This Calculator?
This tool makes it easier to understand your compensation increase before you accept a job offer, promotion, annual review raise, or pay adjustment. It is especially useful if you want to estimate your yearly earnings increase after a raise.
