# How do I calculate the vehicle benefit amount to be taxed?

Within **Cintra iQ**, you can set up the company vehicle benefits to be payrolled for each **PAYE** scheme in a given tax year. Before you can calculate the vehicle benefit, you need to create a vehicle record(s) and assign it to the employee.

## To calculate

1. Navigate to the employee's **Payslip & Period Summary** form.

Go to **Cintra iQ**: Employment record > Forms > Payslip
2. Click the **Calculate** button. The vehicle/fuel/mileage allowance taxable benefit is automatically displayed on the **Gross to Net Summary** tab with the tax that is paid to **HMRC**.
3. Click the **OK** button. The **Payslip** is closed.

> [!NOTE]
> **Note:** The payrolled benefit also appears in the Payrolled Benefits tab of the Payroll Period Input and Corrections window.
