Reading a raise

A raise percentage is the increase divided by your old pay. Going from $60,000 to $63,000 is a $3,000 increase, or 5%. To see whether a raise keeps up with prices, compare it with the yearly change in the Consumer Price Index published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics. More in the raise guide.
