    Hi,

    I am confused with the answer for Practice Question 19 because of the following:

    1. For the bonus – is it because the question did not use the word entitled we used date paid?

    2. The question said use official rate of 3% but the answer used 2.5%

    3. The answer used personal Allowance used as 11,000 not 11,500

    4. Basic rate band as 32,000 and not 33,500

    Please clarify

    Looks like I was having a really bad day when I was updating questions and answers to Q.19 and Q.20 – see query from previous ask the tutor question!!
    Your points 2 to 4 above are simply the figures for the 2016/17 tax year that have not been updated to 2017/18 figures – my apologies and thanks for pointing this out to me!
    Point 1 – yes – if the question does not specifically refer to the date when the employee became entitled to the bonus you will take that as being the date when it was paid
