About the Raise Calculator
The calculator uses a multi formula configuration. Each reported value is read as a direct evaluation of the stored rules with the declared field formats and units.
Formula basis:
New Salary = Current Salary + Raise Amount
Raise Amount = Current x Raise%
Raise% = Raise Amount / Current Salary x 100
Net take-home increase estimated at 70% of raise (30% tax estimate)
Interpret the outputs in the order shown by the result fields. Optional inputs affect only the outputs that depend on those variables.
Formula & How It Works
The calculation applies the following relations exactly as recorded in the metadata: New Salary = Current Salary + Raise Amount Raise Amount = Current x Raise% Raise% = Raise Amount / Current Salary x 100 Net take-home increase estimated at 70% of raise (30% tax estimate) Each output field is produced by substituting the supplied inputs into the relevant relation and then applying the declared rounding or text format.
