Enter the initial and final efficiency values into the calculator to determine the efficiency increase. This calculator helps to evaluate the improvement in efficiency over time or after certain changes have been implemented.
Efficiency Increase Formula
The following formula is used to calculate the efficiency increase:
EI = FE - IE
Variables:
- EI is the efficiency increase (%)
- FE is the final efficiency (%)
- IE is the initial efficiency (%)
To calculate the efficiency increase, subtract the initial efficiency from the final efficiency.
What is Efficiency Increase?
Efficiency increase is a measure of the improvement in performance or productivity of a process, system, or machine. It is often expressed as a percentage and indicates how much more efficient the entity has become over a period of time or as a result of certain modifications or improvements. It is a key metric in operational management and process optimization.
How to Calculate Efficiency Increase?
The following steps outline how to calculate the Efficiency Increase.
- First, determine the initial efficiency (IE) as a percentage.
- Next, determine the final efficiency (FE) as a percentage.
- Next, gather the formula from above = EI = FE – IE.
- Finally, calculate the Efficiency Increase (EI) as a percentage.
- After inserting the variables and calculating the result, check your answer with the calculator above.
Example Problem:
Use the following variables as an example problem to test your knowledge.
Initial Efficiency (IE) = 75%
Final Efficiency (FE) = 85%
