How to work it out

  1. Difference: 22 − 14 = 8
  2. Divide by the starting value: 8 ÷ 14 = 0.571429
  3. Multiply by 100: 57.1429%
  4. Check: Work forwards from the start: 14 × (1 + 0.571429) = 14 × 1.571429 = 22.

In a spreadsheet: =(22-14)/14*100. Always divide by the starting value, not the new one. A rise from 40 to 50 is +25%, but the fall from 50 back to 40 is −20%.

What the result means

The new value is 1.5714 times the old one: for every 100 at the start there are now 157.1429.

Prices: an item whose price rises from $14 to $22 has gone up by 57.1429%.

Why the change back is different

A 57.1429% rise followed by a 57.1429% fall does not bring you back to 14: it gives 9.4286. The second percentage is taken of 22, not of 14, so to undo this change you need 36.3636% instead.
