How to work it out

  1. Difference: 14 − 93 = -79
  2. Divide by the starting value: -79 ÷ 93 = -0.849462
  3. Multiply by 100: -84.9462%
  4. Check: Work forwards from the start: 93 × (1 − 0.849462) = 93 × 0.150538 = 14.

In a spreadsheet: =(14-93)/93*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 15.0538% of the old one: for every 100 at the start there are now 15.0538, so 84.9462 out of every 100 have gone.

Sales: a price cut from $93 to $14 is a 84.9462% discount.

Why the change back is different

A 84.9462% fall followed by a 84.9462% rise does not bring you back to 93: it gives 25.8925. The second percentage is taken of 14, not of 93, so to undo this change you need 564.2857% instead.
