P11D/Self asses question - Company Car

Options
Hi - Just hoping someone could share their knowledge - On the self assessment under "Taxable benefits and expenses" there is a box for Company Car Value. This figure should come from the P11D. Should you add in the total cash equivalent of the car figure or 40% of this figure? (for higher rate tax person). thanks.

    May I piggyback your thread?

    I work and pay PAYE but also own a half share in a property so need to do a Tax Return.

    I get a company car but my employers haven't yet given me my P11D form and I'd like to get the Return done this weekend if poss but I don't know the 2014-15 figure.

    The amount was £2160.00 (Ford Fiesta) for 2013-14 so I wonder if anyone knows the 2014-15 figure?


    Thanks

    The cash equivalent - the calculation will work out the tax due

    Get the P11D - not worth putting a different figure on the return from that submitted by the employer.

    I thought employers were legally bound to provide individuals with their P11D at the same time as supplying this to HMRC (i.e. 5 July)? Even if not, why wouldn't they? This is very poor form by the employer I would say.

    Sky? Believe in better.

    Note: win, draw or lose (not 'loose' - opposite of tight!)

    Yes I thought I would have got it before now. However I'll wait until I get the form before sending in my REturn.
  • Sorry, but I really don't know how to start a new thread...

    About 6 years ago I leased a car from my employer who had a sister company which leased cars. I paid the full lease amount from my net salary.

    I left the company and returned the car after 2 years but now I apparently owe the tax man so they have reduced my tax code to 666.

    Is this right?
