1. Determine the yearly salary before the increase. This is the annual gross figure the employee received prior to the raise; for example, $50,000. 2. Compute the raise based on the percentage or the flat amount given. Percentage example: $50,000 x 4 percent (.04) = $2,000 annual increase. Therefore, the new annual salary is $52,000. The flat amount example would be: $50,000 + $1,500 = $51,500, the new annual salary. 3. Divide the new annual salary into the annual pay periods to arrive at the new salary per pay period.
