Apply a raise to salary, price or any amount.
Increase = amount × percent / 100. New = amount + increase.
50,000 + 20% → 60,000.
Apply a percentage increase to an amount to get the raise and the new total. Not the same as profit margin. Informational only.
Increase = amount × rate/100; new = amount + increase. Keep VAT-inclusive bases consistent.
Stacking raises additively instead of sequentially understates compounding. Do not equate markup with margin.
