How £110,000 is taxed
Because you earn over £100,000, your Personal Allowance shrinks by £1 for every £2 above it, from £12,570 to £7,570. Between £100,000 and £125,140 that makes each extra pound cost 60p in Income Tax, plus 2% National Insurance. A pension contribution that brings your adjusted net income back to £100,000 restores the full allowance; try it in the salary calculator.
Altogether, Income Tax and National Insurance take 34.2% of your salary. Of your next £1,000 pay rise, you'd keep £380.00.
