Compare one assumption at a time
Compare the change in estimated tax with the change in entered income. The effective rate on the whole income and the tax on an additional amount are different measures. Only the supported tax components are shown; this table does not expand the scope into a full return or payslip. These fictional scenarios use the starting inputs printed above, not your current entries in the interactive calculator.

Are you comparing money available now with money set aside for retirement?
A cash savings goal and a SIPP balance answer different questions. The SIPP model includes basic-rate relief under its stated assumptions, while the savings tool excludes tax and account restrictions. Keep accessible savings separate from a retirement balance when comparing the results.
To reproduce the table, reset the calculator, change only the named input and compare the result and any warning. Record the assumptions with your result. See worked planning examples and our calculation and correction process.
