A practical relocation offer value scenario
For this example, use relocation package of 12,000, moving and setup costs of 8,500, monthly housing cost increase of 300, months compared of 12 months, and tax rate on taxable package of 25 %. These are starting values, so replace them with numbers that match your situation.
Relocation package: 25% lower
Change relocation package to 9,000 while keeping the other example values the same.
Relocation package: 25% higher
Change relocation package to 15,000 while keeping the other example values the same.
