About Company Profit Tax Calculator UK
You input total revenue, allowable expenses and capital allowances, then the calculator applies the correct corporation‑tax rate—19 % below £250k profit or 25 % above—plus marginal relief where needed. It subtracts R&D reliefs and loss carry‑forwards, computes taxable profit and produces the exact liability and net profit after tax. Exportable schedules meet FRS 102 and HMRC requirements, and the next sections reveal deeper insights and examples; you’ll also discover practical tips for avoiding common pitfalls in practice.
2026 Corporation Tax method
The estimate applies the 19% small-profits rate below the adjusted lower limit, 25% above the adjusted upper limit, and HMRC's 3/200 marginal-relief fraction between them. Both limits are divided by this company plus its associated companies.
