How to work it out

  1. Difference: 94 − 60 = 34
  2. Divide by the starting value: 34 ÷ 60 = 0.566667
  3. Multiply by 100: 56.6667%
  4. Check: Work forwards from the start: 60 × (1 + 0.566667) = 60 × 1.566667 = 94.

In a spreadsheet: =(94-60)/60*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 1.5667 times the old one: for every 100 at the start there are now 156.6667.

Prices: an item whose price rises from $60 to $94 has gone up by 56.6667%.

Why the change back is different

A 56.6667% rise followed by a 56.6667% fall does not bring you back to 60: it gives 40.7333. The second percentage is taken of 94, not of 60, so to undo this change you need 36.1702% instead.
