Net Relevant Earnings
Net Relevant Earnings are used to determine the maximum contributions to a Retirement Annuity, Personal Pension or Stakeholder Pension.
Net Relevant Earnings are your relevant earnings less: allowances deductible for tax in relation to business purposes e.g. some capital allowances; stock relief (only for tax years prior to 1984/85), losses from business
Please note that mortgage interest, personal tax relief and other allowances are not deducted. The calculation of net relevant earnings for any individual case should be referred to a suitably qualified person, such as an accountant or the local tax inspector.
