Calculating wages

I am USELESS at Maths.

Does anyone know how to work out what my salary per month or year after tax would be on minimum wage £6.32 per hour, based on a 37.5 hour week?

I have no idea :(

    Your gross salary (before tax, NI etc) for the year would be £12,357 (£6.32 x 37.5 hours x 52.14 weeks)

    Monthly gross would be £1,030 (annual divided by 12)

    What you will actually get net (after tax etc) depends on a lot of things. Primarily your tax code, but also your age, whether you are part of a pension scheme, whether you pay student loans, whether you have any attachment of earnings.

    http://www.listentotaxman.com/ will give you a reasonable idea if you plug in the gross salary figures and your tax code and other info if you know it.
