Salary increase

Are these sentences correct and is 'by' the right preposition in the first sentence?

1. We have decided to increase John's salary by 200 dollars. Please take the necessary action.

2. We have decided to increase John's salary to 6000 dollars. Please take the necessary action.

Thanks.
