    Dear tutor,

    I have a question regarding one exercise. How can we know that if a pension contribution is a gross number or not?

    The sentence in the exercise goes like this:
    “Jacob will contribute a total of £12,000 into Initial plc’s occupational pension scheme.”

    Thank you in advance!

    Occupational pensions paid by the employee are paid gross and are a deduction against employment income.

    Personal pensions are paid net of 20% income tax and so must be grossed up at 100/80 and are treated the same as gift aid donations.
