• Higher income uses one third of incomeAt GYD 6,000,000, one third of income (GYD 2,000,000) is greater than GYD 1,680,000, so the allowance is GYD 2,000,000.

The personal allowance is the greater of GYD 1,680,000 or one third of gross annual income. Chargeable income is gross income minus that allowance. The first GYD 3,360,000 of chargeable income is taxed at 25%, and any amount above that is taxed at 35%. The tool sums the tax from each band to get total estimated tax, then subtracts that from gross income for an estimated net income.
