What this leaves out or assumes
- England, Wales and Northern Ireland Income Tax rates, a standard Personal Allowance and National Insurance category A.
- Tax-free pay follows the tax code, as payroll and HMRC's own take-home pay estimator do: code 1257L gives £12,579 a year, not £12,570, which is up to a few pounds less tax.
- Worked out over the whole tax year. Payroll works out each payday on its own, so a monthly or weekly payslip can differ by a few pence, or by more in a month with a bonus.
