Put in a salary of 50k+ and it calculates my basic rate (at 20%) tax to be 6,373 - it should be 4,373....
Alex - 23/12/2014 23:47:51£50,000 after the £10,000 personal allowances leaves £40,000 taxable, of which £31,865 is taxed at 20 percent and the remaining £8,135 is taxed at 40 percent.

Aged 77 gross £118,000 pa: why £1,000 allowance. Should be zero if income over £27,100??
Michael Kelly - 30/05/2014 14:39:06As the gross income (£118,000) is over the age-related allowance limit of £27,000, the personal allowance of £10,660 is reduced by £1 for every £2 over the limit. This, however, is capped to the minimum amount of £10,000 for 2014/2015. The further reduction is then applied due to having an income of £100,000 - so another £1 for every £2 over - £9,000 is therefore taken off the basic allowance of £10,000. This leaves a tax free allowance of £1,000.

Thanks for your great website. Calculation would be clearer if gross dividends were used. Keep up the good work!

How does one calculate tax liability for two retired people in pension income only?
R McGahon - 05/01/2014 07:46:16You will need to run two separate calculations, one for each person. When entering the income details, make sure you tick the 'NO NICS' option and enter the correct date of birth. Enter the pension income as your gross income for the tax year.
