calculating net salary from gross

[electionfatigue]

help please! have used various different online calculators and getting a different answer each time.

Am I doing this right?

start with gross monthly salary, lets say 1000 for ease
take off childcare vouchers of 243 = 757
then take off pension of say 8%, 92 % of 757 is 696.44
Put that in a paye calculator with appropriate tax code and should get the same result each time!

Am I doing things in the right order e.g. calculating pension on the post CCV income?

any particular paye calculators to recommend? Mr Anchovy hasn't been updated for the current tax year

thanks in advance.

Listen to taxman is usually very accurate.

Listen to taxman

Or thesalarycalculator.co.uk - put in salary, and then work through deductions on the tabs.

And it will give you take home by day, week and month. V handy.

Thanks all, that's really helpful. They are all coming up within £20 or so of each other, I can live with that uncertainty!

The martin Lewis income checker / tax calculator is very good

Tax is cumulative, meaning the amount you'll pay is dependant on how much you've paid in recent months. Add a zero to your tax code then divide by 12 - that's your months tax free pay. PAYE will only been taken on what's left each month. Remember NI too!
