| Enter P46(Car) information for a new car record |
Description | If you haven't already done so, you need to create a new car record for the new vehicle before you can enter P46 (Car) information. |
Resolution | The steps you need to follow depend on whether it's the employee's first car, or you're replacing an existing car. Select the relevant option below to find out what to do: ▼ New car - Complete the P46(Car) Details window:
- In the Car Details section, select the P46(Car) Required check box
- In the P46(Car) Statement section, select the check box that reflects the employee's change of circumstance
- In the P46(Car) Details section, enter the relevant information regarding the employee's private use contribution and fuel costs
-
Private use contributions made by the employee (out of their net pay) towards the private use of the vehicle will reduce the cash equivalent value. Some employers place a limit on the value or type of car that they make available to an employee. Occasionally the employer is willing to allow an employee to have the use of a more expensive car, if the employee pays a monthly sum representing the excess; for example the additional leasing costs over and above the employer’s limit. In these cases, the payments do not reduce the benefit charge because they do not qualify as payment for the private use of a car under EIM25250. They are merely for the availability of a more expensive car. - Click OK, click Save then click Close.
