Enter your current pay, then pick whichever you already know — your raise percentage, your new pay, or your raise amount — to calculate the other two.
How to Use the Pay Raise Calculator
Current Pay is required in every mode. Beyond that, the three toggle buttons each expect a different single piece of information: a raise percentage, a target new pay figure, or a flat dollar raise amount — enter whichever one you actually know, and the calculator fills in the rest.
I Know My Raise %: New Pay = Current × (1 + Raise% ÷ 100)
I Know My New Pay: Increase = New Pay − Current
I Know My Raise Amount: New Pay = Current + AmountAll three modes ultimately produce the same three outputs — New Pay, Dollar Increase, and Percent Increase — just working backward from different starting information. A $50,000 salary with a 5% raise, a $52,500 new offer, and a flat $2,500 bump are all the exact same raise described three different ways, and this tool treats them identically once you're in the matching mode.
Comparing a job offer against a current salary is the most common reason to reach for the "I Know My New Pay" mode specifically — it turns an absolute number into the percentage increase that's actually easier to judge against a cost-of-living adjustment or a typical annual raise.
