How to work it out

  1. Difference: 34 − 24 = 10
  2. Divide by the starting value: 10 ÷ 24 = 0.416667
  3. Multiply by 100: 41.6667%
  4. Check: Work forwards from the start: 24 × (1 + 0.416667) = 24 × 1.416667 = 34.

In a spreadsheet: =(34-24)/24*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 1.4167 times the old one: for every 100 at the start there are now 141.6667.

Prices: an item whose price rises from $24 to $34 has gone up by 41.6667%.

Why the change back is different

A 41.6667% rise followed by a 41.6667% fall does not bring you back to 24: it gives 19.8333. The second percentage is taken of 34, not of 24, so to undo this change you need 29.4118% instead.
