1 - 2,090 pounds is charged at 10%
2,091 - 32,400 pounds is charged at 22%
32,401 and above is charged at 40%

This means that the first 2,090 of you income is charged at 10% (209 pounds)
Next is 30,310 charged at 22% (6,668.20)
Lastly 2,600 charged at 40% (1,040.00)
Amounts to 7,917.20 pounds income tax payable

Pretty much what Tina said, although you do get a tax free allowance each year which means that the first few thousand pounds are tax free unless you've used your allowance up on dividends from shares or interest from the building society etc.

22% tax 11% national insurance. The threshold for 40% tax is £38,000. Hope this helps.

The first £5035 is tax free = £0
The next £2150 @ 10% = £215
The next £27815 @ 22% = £6119.30

Total tax due = £6334.30

Please note several previous replies are using the old rates, the £2090 10% band applied between april 2005/april 2006, it has increased to £2150 this year.

If the £35k is your gross salary, your annual personal allowance will be deducted from this before tax and national insurance is calculated. If this is your only form of income, then you will be taxed at 22% and the national insurance is calculated at 11% (totalling 33% of deductions from your salary).

Example £35000 - 5035 (personal allowance) = £29965 taxable income. £29965 x 33% = £9985. Therefore your net pay will be £35000 - £9985 = £25015 net pay.

Hope this helps!

reduce ur income by 5035, ur personal allowance.

then the first 2090 is at 10% = £209.00
and the rest at 22% = 6132.50

total income tax = £6341.50

also charge NI at 11% = 3296.15

net pay therefore = 35000 - 6341.50 - 3296.15 =


£25362.35

40% kicks in at 38k. Look at your expenses, claim everything
Do not pay some accountant for a simple tax return, do it on line.
