Corporation tax calculator

This calculator provides an estimate based on the revenue and expenses you enter. Your actual Corporation Tax liability is based on taxable profit, which may differ from your accounting profit. The calculation may need to add back costs such as depreciation and client entertainment, and deduct eligible capital allowances and other reliefs. Contact us to discuss the adjustments that apply to your business.

How your corporation tax is calculated

The total corporation tax you owe depends on two things:

  • Your business income
  • Your business expenses

Your total taxable earnings (income minus expenses) determine how much Corporation Tax you'll need to pay and whether you'll get any marginal relief.

Separately, Profit Chargeable to Corporation Tax (PCTCT) must include add backs and deductions such as depreciation, entertainment and capital allowances and the tax payable will be impacted by the number of associated companies.

Please contact the office for further information or read more about it in this guide here: Corporation Tax.

In your case, where your total income was £10,000 and your expenses were £3,000, your total taxable income, or profit, was £7,000.
