Percentage increase/decrease calculation

The percentage increase/decrease from initial value (V_initial) to final value (V_final) is equal to the initial and final values difference divided by the initial value times 100%:

percentage increase = (V_final - V_initial) / V_initial × 100%

Example #1

Price percentage increase from initial value of $1000 to final value of $1200 is caluclated by:

percentage increase = ($1200 - $1000) / $1000 × 100%

 = 0.2 × 100% = 20%

Example #2

Price percentage increase from initial value of $1000 to final value of $800 is caluclated by:

percentage increase = ($800 - $1000) / $1000 × 100%

= -0.2 × 100% = -20%

So

percentage decrease = 20%

Difference and final value calculation

The difference d is equal to the initial value V₀ times the percentage increase/decrease p divided by 100:

d = V₀ × p / 100

The final value V₁ is equal to the initial value V₀ plus the difference d:

V₁ = V₀ + d
