Car Fuel benefits 2009/10 and 2008/09
£16,900 x 'appropriate percentage'.
The appropriate percentage is the percentage used to calculate the taxabale benefit of the car for which the fuel is provided.

on Budget Day.
The charge is proportionately reduced if provision of private fuel ceases part way through the year.
The fuel benefit is reduced to nil only if the employee pays for all private fuel.

The charges will not apply if a 'restricted private use condition' is met throughout the year.
