Hi,

I am struggling to understand how the figure of £4,800 has been calculated. Could someone please explain how these figures have been calculated and how this table is filled out ?

The only thing I understand is that the outstanding tax in a tax year is split into 2 payments paid in the following year at the end of January and end of July.

Thanks in advance.

2019/2020
Non-PAYE amount 8,500 - 2,300 = £6,200 due 31/Jan after tax year ie 31/1/21

2020/2021
Payments on account = 6,200/2 = £3,100 due 31/1/21 and 31/7/21

Balancing payment = £11,000 less 2x£3,100 already paid = £4,800 due 31/1/22

2021/2022
Payments on account = 11,000/2 = £5,500 due 31/1/22 and 31/7/22
