  2. £37,700 is taxed at the basic rate of 20%: £7,540.
  3. £87,440 is taxed at the higher rate of 40%: £34,976.
  4. £1,023,860 is taxed at the additional rate of 45%: £460,737.
  5. National Insurance is 8% of £37,700 between £12,570 and £50,270 plus 2% of £1,098,730 above that. Payroll works it out each month, which gives £24,990.00 for the year.
