Genuinly brilliant video. Exactly what youtube should be used for. I am just moving into the 40% and offered a company car, without this i would have just stung myself. Thank you
@@DefinitelyNotAGuru thank you! I don't suppose you have it in your plans to talk about claiming fuel back or getting the company to pay for it completely etc. There seems conflicting information with the current fuel costs
Is the tax you pay only on that one income stream. For example the job which provides the Company Car I earn 38000. Let's say the BKI is 10000. Total 48000. So in theory 20% tax. I also have a military pension which is 11000. Would this contribute. I put all my personal allowance on the Company Car wage.
Great explanation and examples. Thanks for putting this together. It does show me that the government has some sneaky ways to glean more money from you.
Thanks for the information. By far this Is the easiest breakdown to understand and actually I think you have saved me from possibly making a huge mistake.
Thanks for watching Harsh Jain, you need to check with your company, some let you do whatever you want with your car allowance but if you’re client facing they may say the car needs to be less than X years old 👍
@@harshjain3915 Brilliant news, just find out how much per mile they will pay you for business trips to make sure you're happy with it. If you're on a car allowance you probably will be getting much less than the normal 45p per mile for business trips so make sure you're happy with what they would pay. Great that you can do what you want with the money though.
Hi, soirry, I don't quite understand the question? is this a benefit in kind? if it's 2% BIK for free charging and you're not just going to charge at home 90% of the time it's probably a great deal - if that was your question. Sorry, it's Friday and my brain is slowing up :)
Thanks very much for this. Put a lot of work into the videos, I can tell. I currently have a PCP and the company pays me the monthly cost. Do I have to pay tax?
I do mate but hopefully it will pay off one day. Good comments on follows helps keep me going so thank a lot. So you are getting a car allowance then which is taxable in the same way as normal income.
@@-Chunk if it’s a company car then leave it to the company. Makes no difference to you as your tax is based on the car, not how it’s paid for. If you’re getting one yourself a lot depends on your mileage but PCP, in my opinion, is always the worst way of buying a car. Either lease it on a lease deal or get a bank loan. Traditional car finance often sucks. I’ve done a few videos comparing all the different deals so have a deep dive through my videos.
@@DefinitelyNotAGuru yeah understand . With the PCP though, company are paying for it for 3 years but its in my name. i still owe 11k on it, but most “buy car” companies quote me 16k for the car, so thats 5k in my pocket.
@@-Chunk the company are paying your pcp but it’s in your name??? You need to get some advice on that mate, sounds highly irregular and possible tax evasion. Just get some advice on it mate.
Thanks very much, unfortunately I know nothing about motorcycles, I would assume that the benefit in kind works in a similar way but have no experience I’m afraid 👍
Great video. If it can be proven that a vehicle is only used for business miles would it be exempt from tax? Or does this not matter is the vehicle is in your possession and insured for personal use?
Hi David, I assume you have a LTD company but not sure about your VAT situation. Best advice to you is that you need to speak to your accountant before taking on a company car - simple as that really. Depending on your tax situation there are "right ways" and "wrong ways" of doing things so speak to your accountant to find out the best way for you. They get asked this almost every day so should have all the answers to hand and will understand your circumstances.
Sorry, probably a silly question - are there 2 tax increases from having a company car - income tax and the additional car tax based upon the P11D value? Or is the BIK value only added to the income figures for the purpose of calculating the tax band (20%/40%)?
The BIK value is added to your income which then may push you into the 40%, I.e 45k salary + 10k bik puts you into 40%. Once you’re at 40% even by £1 you pay 40% tax on the car.
Please can you help me. My company car scheme states 0.5%+BIK. The '0.5%' states the contribution I must pay and decreases by 0.1% each year you stay at the company. For example, first year you pay 0.5%, second year 0.4% and so on and so forth. This is the contribution I must pay, including BIK. I'm not sure what this means. Does anyone have the same structure or could shed some light, please? Thank you
I BOUGHT USED CAR £15K CASH, TROUGH MY LTD(I am 100% share holder of the company). CAN I RENT or lease TO ME AS A SOLE TRADER(uber porpose)? AND PAY MONTLY RENT +% BACK TO THE COMPANY TILL I REFUND THAT £15k+%? Thanks

Hello. Great video. Really helpful. I have a question please. If my wage is 45k per year. And i get a car with a 10k bik, that will take my yearly earnings to 55k. From your replies to others it would apper that i will be charged 40% tax in the car but my question is will i also be charged 40% on my 45k wage or will that stay at 20%? Thank you
You will basically be taxed as if you’re earning £55k. Your employers accountant or HR should be able to tell you exactly how it will affect you. You could try and find an online tax calculator too. 👍
Thanks for watching Jimmy Little, really appreciate your support - not the most exciting topic but glad you liked it - please tell a friend and follow me on Twitter @notaguru3 👍
Does the P11D value change year on year with the same car? Say I get a car with 30k p11d, is it still 30k for year 2? and year 3? Thanks for the clear video, and sorry if you already cleared this up and I missed it!
Honestly Tim, I'm not 100% sure but THINK the P11D valie is fixed at the time of purchase as it's the Purchase Price of the car + options etc and not a current value.
what happens when you pay a personal usage charge? do you know how this impact the tax and if its worth it? ( example pay £60 a month for a standard Vauxhall Astra )
For the personal petrol do you mean? it can have a big impact, again it doubles if you're a 40% taxpayer. There is a calculator on the government website which will help you judge it.
@@DefinitelyNotAGuru Hi I wanted to ask if someone's salary is over £37250 per year, will they pay 40% tax or is it 40% tax for someone earning over £50271 per year. Hope that makes sense!
Yes, two ways to look at it I guess but basically you lose £7500 of your £12500 allowance, this means you pay tax earler and, in theory, move up the company income tax bands earlier.
Worth mentioning anyone who is paying CMS, they can include this extra i.e. £10K BIK into the pot and you get double stung as taxed at 40% then pay a further 20% for CMS off the top.
@@Lee22sas Because HMRC don't play fair. It's as simple as that. Most people assume it works the same as standard income tax but it's pretty close to theft as far as I'm concerned.

hi mate, quick question, would the employer take out the tax from your monthly pay pack?
Yes, your tax code gets changed so it’s adjusted in PAYE, it can take a few months though which means you may have to pay some back tax if so
