in Cutting tax
Hi,
[This is probably not the best forum to ask this... if anyone knows of a free forum for small company type questions re tax please let me know]
I just filled in the first draft of my Self-Assessment. In 2017-18 my company paid me £8200 salary and I received £8690 as dividends (sole shareholder). Plus £10 interest (!) gives "Total income received £16900.00".
I'm very puzzled by these two lines in the calculations, under the heading "Dividends from companies, etc.":
"Basic rate at nil rate - £5000.00 - x 0 % - 0.00
Basic rate - £390.00 - x 7.5% - £29.25"
I can't understand where on earth that £390 figure is coming from. Can anyone say?
