How it is worked out
- Your tax-free Personal Allowance is £12,570.00. That leaves £12,430.00 to tax.
- £12,430.00 is taxed at 20% = £2,486.00.
- National Insurance is 8% of £12,430.00 (your pay between £12,570 and £50,270) = £994.40.
- Take-home: £25,000.00 minus £2,486.00 tax minus £994.40 National Insurance = £21,519.60.
You earn under the Plan 2 student loan threshold of £29,385, so you would repay nothing on a Plan 2 loan this year.
