Translate a Pay Rise Offer Into Its Real Monthly Increase After Tax

A pay rise sounds bigger on paper than it feels in your account once tax takes its share. This works through the gross increase, an estimated after-tax figure, and whether the rise nudges you toward a higher tax band, then states the real monthly increase in one plain line.

2. Estimate the increase after basic rate tax and National Insurance, noting this is an estimate and exact figures depend on the individual's tax code
3. Note if the rise pushes them close to a higher tax band and what that would mean
4. State the real take-home increase in plain terms
