How it adds up
What happens to a £80,000 salary
- Your first £12,570 is tax-free (the Personal Allowance).
- The top slice of a £80,000 salary is taxed at the higher rate (40%) in England, Wales or Northern Ireland.
- National Insurance is 8% between £12,570 and £50,270 and 2% above, so £3,611 a year in total.
- A £1,000 pay rise would add £580 to your take-home pay (a 42% combined marginal rate of tax and NI).
- Paying 5% of salary (£4,000) into a pension by salary sacrifice would cut take-home pay by only £2,320, because it comes out before tax and NI.
- In Scotland the same salary takes home £54,657, £2,300 less a year, because Scotland sets its own Income Tax bands. National Insurance is the same everywhere.
