Frequently Asked Questions
1. What does this calculator measure?
It estimates how a promotion changes base salary, allowances, bonus, annual compensation, and prorated in-year earnings. It helps compare multiple compensation structures before final approval.
2. When should I use percentage mode?
Use percentage mode when the new salary is based on a standard raise rate, such as 8% or 15%. It is useful for structured appraisal or promotion cycles.
3. When is fixed increase mode better?
Fixed increase mode works well when leadership approves a flat monthly amount instead of a percentage. It is common for internal role changes and pay band adjustments.
4. What is target salary mode?
Target salary mode lets you enter the exact new monthly base salary directly. This is useful when HR already knows the approved post-promotion salary figure.
5. Why does the promotion month matter?
The promotion month determines how many months remain in the year. That changes the prorated current-year gain, which is important for budgeting and payroll forecasting.
6. Are allowances and bonus included?
Yes. The calculator includes monthly allowances, annual bonus changes, and extra annual perks. This produces a broader compensation view than base salary alone.
7. Can this support compensation planning discussions?
Yes. It gives a fast comparison between current and proposed pay, which helps HR teams, managers, and finance partners review affordability and reward fairness.
