Percentage change formula
\(F\) = Final value
\(B\) = base value
\(P\) = Percentage
Percentage changes
\(\displaystyle P=\frac{F-B}{|B|}\cdot 100\)
Please note that the base value in the denominator is given as an absolute value, i.e. always positive.
Difference
\(\displaystyle D=F-B\)
Example
A $2500 investment grew to $2750 in one year. How much is the change?
\(\displaystyle P=\frac{F-B}{B}\cdot 100\) = \(\displaystyle \frac{2750-2500}{2500}\cdot 100 = 10\%\)
\(\displaystyle D=F-B\; =2750-2500=250\)
