How do I reduce (or increase) the value of selected cells by a given
percentage?

Assume your selected cells are A1:A10 and you want to increase them by 6%.

In an unused cell, enter 1.06. Copy that cell.

Then select A1:A10 and Paste/Special Multiply

If A1:A10 contains values, the values will be changed.

If A1:A10 contains formulas, the operation will result in:

(your_formula)*1.06
