Your pay lands, you check one number, and you scroll past the rest.

The gross, the tax, the deductions, the codes, the year-to-date - a wall of small print nobody ever taught you to read. But that wall is where mistakes hide, where free money sits unclaimed, and where you find out what your work is really worth.

The Payslip Math Workout takes a payslip apart, line by line, with math so simple you do it in your head. No jargon, no tax degree - just the everyday arithmetic that lets you read any payslip, recompute your own pay, and catch what's wrong.

You'll learn to:

  • Understand every line on your payslip - gross, net, tax, contributions - finally
  • Catch when you've been paid wrong: missing hours, the wrong rate, overtime at the flat rate, a deduction that's too big
  • See how tax brackets really work - so a pay rise is never not worth it (a myth this book busts)
  • Know your real take-home before you say yes to a job, a raise, or extra hours
  • Claim the free money most people leave behind - the employer pension match
  • Compare two job offers on what they're really worth - pay, benefits and all
  • Plus two bonus rounds: valuing your whole package, and the tax relief you may be overpaying
