Chapter 9 (taxable benefits: disposals of shares for more than market value);
Chapter 10 (taxable benefits: residual liability to charge).
(5)Subsection (1)—
(a)means that in any of those Chapters a reference to an employee does not include an employee whose employment is within the exclusion in that subsection, if the context is such that the reference is to an employee in relation to whom the Chapter applies, but
(b)does not restrict the meaning of references to employees in other contexts.
(6)Subsection (1) has effect subject to—

section 199(4) (disposal for more than market value: where employment becomes lower-paid), and
section 220 (employment in two or more related employments).
(1)For the purposes of this Chapter an employment is “lower-paid employment” in relation to a tax year if the earnings rate for the employment for the year (calculated under section 218) is less than £8,500.
(2)Subsection (1) is subject to section 220 (employment in two or more related employments).
(1)For any tax year the earnings rate for an employment is to be calculated as follows—
Step 1
Find the total of the following amounts—

Step 3
Subtract the total amount of any authorised deductions (see subsection (4)) from the result of step 2.
Step 4
The earnings rate for the employment for the year is given by the formula—
where—
R is the result of step 3,
Y is the number of days in the year, and
