What this means
Multiply your current salary by the decimal form of the raise (5% = 0.05) to get the dollar raise, then add it back. The monthly increase divides the raise by 12 for a per-paycheck comparison. Only the base salary changes — bonuses, commissions, and other comp are not touched.
A percentage raise is simple to quote and easy to miscompute under negotiation pressure. This tool applies the percentage to your current annual salary and spells out the new total, the dollar amount of the raise, and what it adds per month.
Formula
new salary = current salary × (1 + raise% ÷ 100)

FAQ
How do I compare a percentage raise to a flat dollar raise?
Convert: your percentage raise equals the dollar amount divided by your current salary. This tool works in the opposite direction — from percentage to dollars.
Is the monthly increase exactly the raise divided by 12?
Yes, on an annual basis. Your actual paychecks can vary with pay frequency, taxes, and benefit deductions, so treat it as the pre-tax monthly equivalent.
