Working out take home pay???

Hi,


I have recently been offered a new job and am trying to work out wither I would actually be better off or not.


Because I currently have a company car - but the new position is a car allowance, I am finding it quite tricky!


My current situation is a salary of £43k a year with company car, 5% salary sacrifice pension and I pay a student loan for a loan prior to 2012. I am married and 34 years old.


The new position is a salary of £48k, with a car allowance of £4.5k, and 5% salary sacrifice pension.


Can anyone give me an idea of the difference in take home pay between the two options?


Thanks

  • I can't give you an answer, but since you've had no responses at all I'll offer the only help I can.

    On the main site there's a tool you can put your salary in to and it will give an estimate of your take home pay.

    You may need to adjust both salaries to allow for the salary sacrifice, as I don't think it can do this.

    It has all the fields you need. Your basic new salary is £52.5k because the car allowance is also taxed. Enter this in the website above.
