there are some online calculators that wil ldo it for u - search google.

if you have multiple income streams it will prbably mess up your tax code- so yes tell the employer. you may have to fill in a form so they can obtain the correct tax code for u.
It's "net" rather than "real" income you're looking for. "Real" means after adjusting for inflation, not taxes.

Work out your total annual income, then apply income tax and national insurance to it, the rates for which are on the HMRC website. Income tax, very approximately, is - first £5k free, next £2k at 10%, the next £33k at 22%, the rest at 40%. National insurance is the first £4.5k or so free, the next £30k-odd at 11%, the rest at 1%.
If you earned £12,000, therefore, you'd pay tax as follows:

INCOME TAX
£5000 free
£2000 @ 10% = £200
£7000 @ 22% = £550

NATIONAL INSURANCE
£4500 free
£7500 @ 11% = £825

Total tax = £1575
Net income = £10425, or £869 a month

For a summer job then its unlikely you will earn more than £5225 so you won't lose any to tax, may lose a bit to NI.

Just use the method ThePants999 used! It's pretty straight forward. Nobody can tell you how much tax you'd pay without knowing how much you're making.

I hope your job isn't in finance! :wink:

If you have a business and are self-assessing rather than standard PAYE then you will be charged at basic rate (22%) on all your job earnings and will then have to claim back when you do your tax return (April).

Seriously? :confused:

If you're only going to tell us that you're going to make more than 5225 and less than 12000, then we can only tell you you'll pay more than 0 and less than 1575 in taxes. How could anybody here tell you anything more? :confused:
