Identify all income received by individual (non-savings, savings, dividends). This is total income
STEP 1.
(includes salary, bank interests, dividends).
Subtract available tax reliefs – i.e pension scheme contributions, interest on qualifying loans.
STEP 2.
This is net income.
STEP 3. Deduct personal allowance (if applicable). This is taxable income. Personal allowance =
£12,500. It is reduced by £1 for every £2 over £100,00.
STEP 4. Split taxable income into savings, non-savings and dividends (subtract savings and dividends
income from taxable income).
STEP 5. Is personal savings allowance applicable?
- £0 - £37,500 tax bracket first £1,000 of savings is taxed at 0%
- £37,500 - £150,000 tax bracket first £500 of savings is taxed at 0%
- Anything above £150,000 = not available
STEP 6. When applying the relevant tax rates, apply the rate to your non-savings income first and apply
the relevant rate. Once you pass the first line of £37k you apply the next rate on that amount
only. THEN apply your savings, if you’re already over a threshold, you apply the higher tax rate
on the amount you are over. Then pour dividends.
STEP 7. Add up the different tax amounts you calculated. This is your total tax liability.
