About the IPCA Inflation-Adjusted Raise Calculator

When negotiating a raise, it's useful to separate two things: the portion that just keeps pace with inflation (measured by IPCA, Brazil's official consumer price index) and any real increase in purchasing power above that. This calculator shows both.

How it works

Inflation-only adjusted salary = current salary × (1 + IPCA%)

Salary with real increase = inflation-only adjusted salary × (1 + real increase%)

The real increase is the part of your raise that's genuinely worth more, after accounting for inflation.

Assumptions and behaviour

You supply the IPCA rate yourself (e.g. the accumulated 12-month IPCA from IBGE) — this calculator doesn't fetch live index data.
Treats inflation adjustment and real increase as sequential multipliers (compounding), which is the standard way salary negotiations frame it in Brazil.

Limitations

Doesn't fetch the live IPCA value — check IBGE's current published rate before using this.
Doesn't account for income tax bracket changes that a higher salary might trigger.
Estimates only — not financial advice.

Frequently asked questions

Is this IPCA raise calculator free?

What is IPCA?

The Índice Nacional de Preços ao Consumidor Amplo — Brazil's official, broadest consumer price inflation index, published monthly by IBGE.

Where do I find the current IPCA rate?

IBGE publishes the accumulated 12-month IPCA rate on its website — use that figure as your inflation input for a like-for-like comparison.

What's a 'real increase'?

The portion of your raise beyond what's needed just to keep pace with inflation — a genuine gain in purchasing power.
