    18% Rate rise

    Is this the amount I need to keep earning the same money?

    8% for the corporation tax increase (81/75 - 1) and 10% for inflation.

    You are getting 5% like everyone else.

        I am asking for 33%, but was just curious to know what the breakeven point is since I’m not very good at percentages.

            33% or you'll walk?

            I'm assuming you're not after serious responses given you've posted in General.

                i was actually. Did the corporation tax just go from 19% to 25%? If it did, does that mean I need to charge 8% more to break even?

                But feel free to add some banter instead if you don’t know the answer.

                  The corporation tax rate is tapered between £50,000 to £250,000

                  only above £250,000 is it 25%
                  merely at clientco for the entertainment

                    It was FAR better under Gordon Brown -

                    “For companies with profits between £300,001 and £1.5 million, a system of relief operates, such that the average tax rate for these companies is gradually brought into line with the main rate of corporation tax (which applies to profits above £1.5 million per year). Kenneth Clarke announced in the November 1996 Budget that the small companies’ rate would be reduced to 23% from April 1997, but this was superseded by Gordon Brown’s July 1997 Budget announcement of a cut to 21%, which was to be backdated to April 1997.”

                    He even had 10% rate!

                    So 20 years later with massive inflation taper relief starts at 50k
