How to work it out

  1. Difference: 92 − 61 = 31
  2. Divide by the starting value: 31 ÷ 61 = 0.508197
  3. Multiply by 100: 50.8197%
  4. Check: Work forwards from the start: 61 × (1 + 0.508197) = 61 × 1.508197 = 92.

In a spreadsheet: =(92-61)/61*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 1.5082 times the old one: for every 100 at the start there are now 150.8197.

Prices: an item whose price rises from $61 to $92 has gone up by 50.8197%.

Why the change back is different

A 50.8197% rise followed by a 50.8197% fall does not bring you back to 61: it gives 45.2459. The second percentage is taken of 92, not of 61, so to undo this change you need 33.6957% instead.
