Percentage variance calculator

Free online percentage variance calculator – Simply enter a new value and an old value then click the calculate button.

Formula

The formula for calculating percentage variance is:

PV = ((NV – OV) / OV) *100

Where,

• PV = Percentage variance
• NV = New value
• OV = Old value

How to calculate percentage variance?

Here’s a step-by-step guide on how to calculate percentage variance

1. Determine the old value and new value
2. Subtract an old value from the new value, difference = new value – old value
3. Divide the difference by the old value
4. Last, multiply by 100 to get the percentage variance

Solved Example

Example – The old value is 50 and the new value is 75 then find the percentage variance.

Solved

Given, old value = 50, new value = 75

Percentage variance = (75 – 50)/50 = 25/50 *100 = 50%

Therefore, 50% increase from old values to new values.
