Company car, salary sacrifice, your own car or a director's company car – compared year by year
Secure checkout. Your download link is sent as soon as payment clears.

Choosing how to provide a car is one of the biggest benefit decisions an employer or a company director makes – and the tax rules pull in different directions. A company car is taxed as a benefit in kind, electric cars are taxed very lightly but the rates rise every year, salary sacrifice saves tax and National Insurance but reduces pay, and a car allowance is fully taxed. This workbook puts the same car through every route, year by year for four tax years, and shows the net cost to the employee, the net cost to the employer and the combined cost after every tax, NI and tax relief.

The sheets you will use most, in the order you will use them – shown with the sample data every workbook comes with.
Step 1
Every input for the employee, the car, the employer and routes A to D. What you do: fill in the yellow cells.


Step 2
The employee's pay, pension, tax, NI and take-home pay with no car at all, and the employer's cost of employment. What you do: nothing – every route is measured against this.
Step 3
Route A: the benefit in kind, the employee's extra tax, the employer's costs, VAT, Class 1A NI and tax relief. What you do: nothing to enter.


Step 4
Route B: salary given up, taxable value of the car, tax and NI saved, pension effect, minimum wage check and the employer's costs and savings. What you do: nothing to enter.
