Work & Payroll
Calculate a pay raise from current salary or hourly pay, with new pay, annual difference, percentage increase and optional bonus comparison.
Calculator
Raise amount = current pay × raise percent ÷ 100. New pay = current pay + raise amount. For hourly pay, annual change = hourly raise amount × hours per week × paid weeks per year. Bonus comparison = one-time bonus ÷ recurring annual raise when the recurring raise is above zero.
This is the method behind the answer, so the result can be checked rather than simply trusted.Visual grid
Pay Raise is not just a final answer. It is a step on a line: before and after, input and output, assumption and result.
CalculationTime keeps the path visible: the input, the method and the final number belong together.

Raise amount = current pay × raise percent ÷ 100. New pay = current pay + raise amount. For hourly pay, annual change = hourly raise amount × hours per week × paid weeks per year. Bonus comparison = one-time bonus ÷ recurring annual raise when the recurring raise is above zero.

For a 60,000 salary and a 5% raise, raise amount = 60,000 × 5 ÷ 100 = 3,000. New salary = 60,000 + 3,000 = 63,000. If a 1,000 bonus is also entered, the recurring annual raise is still 3,000 and the bonus equals about 4.0 months of that raise value.
Master’s Tip: keep recurring pay and one-time money separate in the printout. A bonus can help now, but a salary or hourly raise changes every future pay period, overtime basis and percentage increase calculation that depends on the new rate.
Standard or basis: transparent gross pay arithmetic. No tax, employment-law, minimum-wage, award, union, overtime or payroll-compliance standard is claimed; use the governing local rule for official decisions.
Methodology & Accuracy
CalculationTime pages are built around visible arithmetic: the formula, assumptions, worked example and practical limitations are shown so the result can be checked rather than simply trusted.

Where a calculator follows a named legal, trade or industry standard, that standard is cited visibly. Otherwise the page uses transparent general arithmetic and states its limits.Master’s Tip: keep recurring pay and one-time money separate in the printout. A bonus can help now, but a salary or hourly raise changes every future pay period, overtime basis and percentage increase calculation that depends on the new rate.
Multiply current pay by the raise percentage divided by 100. Add that amount to current pay to get the new pay.
A 5% raise on 60,000 is 3,000, so the new annual salary is 63,000 before deductions.
Yes. Set pay type to hourly, enter the current hourly rate, hours per week and paid weeks per year. The calculator shows the new hourly rate plus weekly and annual change.
No. A bonus is one-time money. A raise changes the recurring pay rate, so the report keeps bonus and recurring raise values separate.
No. Results are gross pay arithmetic before tax, payroll deductions, benefits, pension, superannuation, insurance or withholding.
Pay-raise arithmetic is simple, but the practical comparison is often muddied by pay period, hourly versus annual basis and one-time bonuses. A useful raise record keeps the old rate, percentage, new rate and recurring yearly value visible together.
A percentage raise is not only this week’s extra money. It changes the salary or hourly rate used in future pay-period, overtime, budget and negotiation comparisons. That is why the report shows both the immediate increase and the annualised effect.
A salary raise can be compared directly as an annual amount. An hourly raise needs hours per week and paid weeks per year before it can be annualised. Keeping those assumptions visible prevents an hourly result from being overstated.
A one-time bonus may be valuable, but it does not usually compound into future base pay. The calculator includes it as a separate comparison so a pay-review note does not confuse temporary and recurring compensation.
