Tapering on Tax credits

Can anyone tell me or point me in the right direction for a table showing how the tax credits taper off based on how much you earn?
The main question i have is does the WTC taper off gradually to zero before the CTC starts to taper off?

    Yes, once you reach just over £5,000 WTC tapers off at a rate of 37%, when that reaches zero WTC childcare tapers, then CTC.
