Here is what i would do
1) open the datebook input file.
2) open 'raise' file for writing in append mode
3) Iterate through the input file.
4) split each line based on ':'. As i understood from the above example is that name, phone number, address, date and salary is seperated by ':'.
5) build a hash making name as key.
6) calculate 10% increment and add it to the salary.
7) print the values to the 'raise' file.
8) close both the file handles.
9) iterate through the hash for printing the names appeared more than once in input file.

You can refer the following untested code for more information.

#!/usr/bin/perl 

use strict;
use warnings;
use Data::Dumper;

my %seen   = ();
open(FH,">>raise.txt");
while(<DATA>) {
    my ($name, $phoneno, $address, $date, $salary) = split(/:/);
    next if $seen{$name}++;
    #$seen{$name}++;        
    $salary += ($salary*10)/100;
    print FH "$name:$phoneno:$address:$date:$salary\n";
}
close(FH);

map {
    print "$_ appread $seen{$_} times in the file\n" if($seen{$_} > 1)
+;
}keys(%seen);
