Donald's annual wage is


23500\text{ pound}

He does not have to pay tax first 6400 pound.

He have to pay tax


23500-6400=17100\text{ pound}

At 25% the tax will be 25% of 17100 which is


(25)/(100)*17100=4275\text{ pound}

At 40% the tax will be 40% of 17100 which is


(40)/(100)*17100=6840pound
