This calculator allows you to assess the Car Scale Charge and Private Fuel Charge for 2004-5.
List Price plus accessories. Exclude accessories designed to help disabled
people, and exclude that part of the cost accounted for by allowing it to
run on road fuel gas. Maximum value of list price is £80000, (if you
buying a car with a higher price, only enter £80000). Classic cars (over
15 years old and with a market value in excess of £15000) are valued
at market value.
Only the first £5000 paid by the employee helps to reduce their tax
liability.
Tax is reduced if the car is 4 or more years old at the end of the year
of assessment.
Other relates to cars that have no cylinder capacity and run on fuels other
than electricity.
Car and fuel benefits depend upon the CO2 emissions of the vehicle. All
new cars will have an official figure. Try http://www.vcacarfueldata.org.uk
- select option VED (for Vehicle Emissions Data). The figure to enter
is the official one, rounded down to the nearest 5. Where figures are not
known leave the entry at 0 and engine size will be used.
Tax is reduced if the car is unavailable for part of the year. Normally
only important when cars are acquired or disposed of part way through a year.
Based on a full year. (Future years figures are estimates and may change).
