Answer: Your new rent will be $ a month — that's $120 more per month, or $1440 more per year.
Type of calculation: Finding the value after a
percentage increase, then scaling the monthly increase up to a full year. How to use the calculator: Use the Value Increase Calculator (“Original increased by Increase% is what?”). Enter $1500 [A]
and 8% [B] to get the new monthly rent. The formula:
Monthly increase = (Increase % / 100) × Current rent
Monthly increase = (8 / 100) × $1500=0.08 × $1500= $120
New monthly rent = $1500 + $120= $1620
Yearly increase = $120 × 12
= $1440
