How to work it out

  1. Difference: 100 − 89 = 11
  2. Divide by the starting value: 11 ÷ 89 = 0.123596
  3. Multiply by 100: 12.3596%
  4. Check: Work forwards from the start: 89 × (1 + 0.123596) = 89 × 1.123596 = 100.

In a spreadsheet: =(100-89)/89*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 1.1236 times the old one: for every 100 at the start there are now 112.3596.

Prices: an item whose price rises from $89 to $100 has gone up by 12.3596%.

Why the change back is different

A 12.3596% rise followed by a 12.3596% fall does not bring you back to 89: it gives 87.6404. The second percentage is taken of 100, not of 89, so to undo this change you need 11% instead.
