Tax/take home calculation

Options
Hi

I'm single and I presently earn £21,319 pension (no NI) and take home £1529 per month

and £22,152 in salary and take home £1302 per month (BR Tax)

If my salary was increased to £24,013 could anyone tell me what my additional take home pay would be?

I think I enter into the 40% tax threshold with this addition

Thanks

    Don't mean to be rude but can you tell us how old you are?
    [SIZE=-1]To equate judgement and wisdom with occupation is at best . . . insulting.

    The personal allowance of £6,475 has been applied to the pension income, this leaves £14844 of taxable pension, taxed at 20%; this results in the £1,529 per month.

    First £37,400 of income is taxed at 20%, so for OP this is 37,400-14844 (pension) = £22,556 of the salary will be taxed at 20% and the rest at the higher rate.

    Thanks pumpkin...

    (Waxies now very cheekily asks how much more take home would he get..taking into account NI on salary :))


  • Bought is to buy. Brought is to bring.
  • cheers hieveryone...I like that
  • Although I think that gives NI for the whole salary, whereby mine is split in two with no NI for the pension...

    I'll have another look later when I aint so bleery eyed!!

    Your gross salary is increasing by £1860. From that you will lose 20% tax and 11% NIC (assuming you are not in a company pension scheme and paying contracted out contributions). You will lose £576.60 of your increase and your take home pay will increase by £106.95 per month.
