How to work it out

  1. Difference: 94 − 71 = 23
  2. Divide by the starting value: 23 ÷ 71 = 0.323944
  3. Multiply by 100: 32.3944%
  4. Check: Work forwards from the start: 71 × (1 + 0.323944) = 71 × 1.323944 = 94.

In a spreadsheet: =(94-71)/71*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 1.3239 times the old one: for every 100 at the start there are now 132.3944.

Prices: an item whose price rises from $71 to $94 has gone up by 32.3944%.

Why the change back is different

A 32.3944% rise followed by a 32.3944% fall does not bring you back to 71: it gives 63.5493. The second percentage is taken of 94, not of 71, so to undo this change you need 24.4681% instead.
