  • If Income Shifting comes in, your net income will decrease by £0 per year.
  • This means two things: 1) Your tax bill will rise by 0%; and 2) Your income will decrease by 100%.
  • To overcome the extra taxes and earn the same net income you will need to increase your profits by 0%.
  • The changes are because all dividends will have to be taken by the first shareholder - which means more of the dividend income will be subject to higher rate tax.

* Figures includes Employers NI of £3,002, which is paid from company revenues.
