Help please. Links for working out take home pay.

Hello there :)

Does anyone have the links for any websites that work out what the take home pay is after tax and national insurance please?

Alternatively, can anyone tell me how much does one takes home, approximately, when on £38,000 a year?

I am just looking at various opportunities that may be coming up and [STRIKE]dreaming[/STRIKE] planning :D

Thank you!

    I work it out to be approximately £2,254.19 per month after tax etc, best to double check though.

    A quick method is to multiply gross salary by 0.75 and this seems to work very well.
    £38,000 x 0.75 / 12 = £2375.
    Actually, it'll be closer to £2200 than that.

    Perhaps that's taking National Insurance and Tax out?

    Actually, I think my 0.75 factor is about right. I don't earn a million miles off £38K and take home is also not a million miles away from £2100. But I pay pension contributions.
