    Hello,

    Please can you check if example 4 answer is correct?

    https://www.accaglobal.com/gb/en/student/exam-support-resources/fundamentals-exams-study-resources/f6/technical-articles/finance-act-2018.html

    I get the same taxable income but my tax liability is 8560 not 8660. I said

    38500x.2
    500×0
    2150x.4
    =8560

    Thanks in advance

    Hi

    I got the same as in the example. If you read the notes below it, it does explain why. What you haven’t taken into account is that the £500 takes up part of the basic rate allowance therefore £2650 would be at 40%.

    Also in future this is more likely an ask the tutor question and so you’d be better off using the tutor forums to ensure they see them.

    Hope this helps!

    I now see that the 500 pounds counts towards the basic rate band.

    Thank you.
