I have a taxing (HRHRHRHR!) question about tax.
Tax free allowance for Joe Average in the UK is £7475 (2011 figure).
Everything between £0 and £37400 is taxed at 20%
Everything between £34107 and £150000 is taxed at 40%
I pay company car tax and preferential loan rate tax (staff rate mortgage at 0.5%, Bank of England base rate tracker) which has essentially eroded my personal allowance away to zero.
This means that instead of me getting the first £7475 tax free, I pay the first £7475 at 20%? ... or some at 20% and some at 40%? (I'm in the 40% bracket btw).
