Calculator usage:
Option 1 (Direct method): Use the Increased Value CALCULATOR ("Calculate new value after percentage increase"). Enter $300 [Original] and 5% [Increase]. The calculator will directly give you the new tax amount.
Option 2 (Step-by-step method):
Step 1: Calculate the tax increase amount. Use the Basic Percentage CALCULATOR ("What is X% of Y?"). Enter 5 [X] and $300 [Y]. The calculator will determine 5% of $300.
Step 2: Add the increase amount calculated in Step 1 to the previous tax amount.
Formula explanation:
We want to find the new tax amount after a 5% increase from $300.
Amount of increase = 5% of $300
Amount of increase = (5 / 100) × $300 = 0.05 × $300 = $15
New tax amount = Previous tax amount + Amount of increase
New tax amount = $300 + $15 = $315
