How to work it out

  1. Difference: 54 − 19 = 35
  2. Divide by the starting value: 35 ÷ 19 = 1.842105
  3. Multiply by 100: 184.2105%
  4. Check: Work forwards from the start: 19 × (1 + 1.842105) = 19 × 2.842105 = 54.

In a spreadsheet: =(54-19)/19*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 2.8421 times the old one: for every 100 at the start there are now 284.2105. The value has more than doubled.

Prices: an item whose price rises from $19 to $54 has gone up by 184.2105%.

Why the change back is different

A 184.2105% rise followed by a 184.2105% fall does not bring you back to 19: it gives -45.4737. The second percentage is taken of 54, not of 19, so to undo this change you need 64.8148% instead.
