Answer:

£930

Explanation:

Monthly income = £1375

y = Yearly income = 12 × 1375 = £16 500

p = Personal allowance = 11 850

y - p = Taxable income = £ 4 650

T = 0.2(y - p) = 0.2 × £4650 = £ 930

The income tax for the year will be £930.

Answer:

£930

Explanation:

Put the numbers in the formula and do the arithmetic. The annual earnings are expected to be 12 times the monthly earnings.

T = 0.2(12×£1375 -11850) = 0.2(£16500 -11850) = 0.2(£4650)

T = £930

The caterer will pay £930 in income tax for the year.
