What Is Percentage Change?
Percentage change measures the degree of change from an original value to a new value, expressed as a percent. It shows how much something has increased or decreased relative to the original amount.
Percentage Change Formula
The formula used to calculate percentage change is:
Percentage Change = ((New Value - Original Value) / Original Value) × 100%
- Original Value: The initial value
- New Value: The updated or final value
Example
Example: The original price of an item is 50 dollars. The new price is 60 dollars.
The percentage change is:
((60 - 50) / 50) × 100% = 20%
This means the price increased by 20%.
