Tax Rate: 50%
Gross Annual Salary Sacrifice: £8,392.53
Benefit in Kind %: 20%
Annual Benefit in Kind Tax: £3,449.50

Tax Saving: -£4,196.27
NI Saving: -£167.85
Pension Contribution: -£272.76
Net Yearly Cost: £7,205.16
Net Monthly Cost: £600.43

Benefit tax £287 + net cost/ month= £687
The quote I got from Pvt Lease is £700 + full maintenance but no insurance

So even if I negotiate to a lower pvt lease, I still gain from not having to pay any insurance, which will be about £800/annum.

On company insurance, if I claim, does it effect my ' NCB'? and if not does my 50% NCB just keeps rolling on?

Many thanks

Insurance companies will (in my experience) recognise a break in your personal cover for a period of years but it won't indefinate. That said most of them recognise accident free motoring under a company policy too. I haven't experienced this personally yet but you'll probably just need a letter from your lease manager stating no claims.

Something looks wrong to me in your benefit in kind tax. As a 50% tax payer I would expect to be taxed on the benefit at 50%.

You know how there are tax bands:

20% - £0-£35k
40% - £35-£150k
50% - > £150

I think maybe your supplier is being a little disengenuous and suggesting that your benefit in kind tax is from the first band.

You'll know for sure when you get a letter from HMRC telling you it's £8000 benefit in kind, like I got this week. LOL
