Rental Income - Tax calculation

It's my first year as a landlord (2018-19), and was wondering if I got my calculations correct before I submit to HMRC?
Salary before tax = 30,000
Rental Income = 10,000
1k "property allowance" = (1,000)
Finance costs @50% = (4,000)
Total Income = 35,000
Income Tax Calculation
11,850 @ 0% = 0
23,150 @ 20% = £4,630
Less 20% tax reduction for remaining finance costs
4,000 @ 20% = (800)
Final Income Tax = 3,830

did you read the rules for the property allowance?
you cannot claim financing costs if you are also claiming the allowance...

Your finance costs seem high?
Remember it's only the interest you can claim a % of0
