did my raise beat inflation
A 5% raise looks fine until period inflation is 6%. To know, compare your percentage with the IPCA or INPC accumulated since your last raise. The calculator below does that month by month with the IBGE series and shows the real gain or loss in percent and in reais.
New salary R$ 3,090 against R$ 3,138.63 needed to match.
New salary R$ 3,240 against R$ 3,138.63 needed.
The same 5% against the year IPCA (4.62%) would give only a 0.36% real gain: the index you pick changes the verdict.
With double-digit inflation, a 6% raise left the salary buying about 3.7% less.
Multiply the salary by 1 plus the percentage divided by 100. For R$ 3,000 with 5%: 3,000 x 1.05 = R$ 3,150, a difference of R$ 150 per month. For a cut, use a negative percentage: R$ 5,000 with -10% gives R$ 4,500.
At least the inflation accumulated since your last raise. To also gain 2% in real terms, compound the two: with IPCA at 4.62%, 1.0462 x 1.02 = 1.0671, about 6.71%. The How much to ask tab of the calculator does the math and shows the matching salary.
Not under any general law. Brazilian Law 10.192/2001 provides for free negotiation at the annual data-base and forbids automatic raise clauses tied to a price index. Your sector percentage comes from that year's collective agreement; what the calculator offers is the numeric argument for negotiating.
Because a month index is only released the following month and the tool shows data up to the last published month. If the requested period goes past it, the calculation is cut there and warns you. Nothing is estimated.
Enter your current salary and the raise percentage (or a cut, with a minus sign). You get the new salary, the yearly effect including the 13th-month pay and vacation bonus, and the hourly rate.
