How this was worked out
  1. Salary: £110,000
  2. Personal allowance: £7,570. Payroll applies it as tax code 757L, which gives £7,579 of tax-free pay.
  3. Taxable income: £110,000 − £7,579 = £102,421
  4. Basic rate: £37,700 × 20% = £7,540
  5. Higher rate: £64,721 × 40% = £25,888.40
  6. Income tax: £33,428.40
  7. National Insurance: (£50,270 − £12,570) × 8% = £3,016, plus (£110,000 − £50,270) × 2% = £1,194.60, total £4,210.60
  8. Take-home pay: £110,000 − £33,428.40 − £4,210.60 = £72,361

Where the allowance stands at £110,000

The full personal allowance is £12,570. On £110,000 five thousand pounds of it has been withdrawn, one pound for each two pounds over the threshold. The standard tax code gives £7,579 of annual PAYE free pay, leaving taxable pay of £102,421. The allowance runs out entirely above £125,140, about fifteen thousand pounds further up.

Until then the marginal rate outside Scotland is 62%, and each thousand pounds of extra pay adds £380. In Scotland the advanced rate of 45% combines with the taper to give a marginal rate of 69.5%, so a raise adds £305.

How far a pension brings the allowance back

Five per cent of £110,000 is £5,500. Salary sacrifice of that size cuts the pay that counts for tax, but it stays above £100,000, so the allowance comes back only in part, to £10,320. Income tax falls by £3,300 and take-home falls by £2,090. Monthly take-home under salary sacrifice would be £5,855.92.

Net pay and relief at source give the same allowance and take-home of £70,161. Your employer saves £825 of National Insurance only under salary sacrifice. The page for a salary five thousand pounds lower shows a case where the same pension restores the whole allowance.
