Budget 2017 tax tables: what the Government’s changes mean for you

Accountants Blick Rothenberg crunch the numbers to calculate the winners and losers from the Budget

The outlook for 201819 is mixed – but how do you fair? (PA)

On the whole, everyone will be better off in 2017/18 as a result of the personal allowance being increased by £500 and the basic rate band by £1,500. However, this is generally offset by employed and self-employed individuals paying additional national insurance contributions.

Pensioners, who do not pay national insurance contributions, will be particularly better off with some keeping up to £83/month in the bank compared to the current tax year.

Families will be no better or worse off as the child tax credits, working tax credits and child benefit rates are all frozen.

The outlook for 2018/19 is mixed however, particularly for self-employed individuals who will be worse off compared to 2017/18. For those individuals who make more than £125,000 of profit per year, the monthly tax savings in 2017/18 will be completely reversed so that they are in the same position as is currently the case.
