SCHEDULE 2 CALCULATION OF EARNINGS FOR THE PURPOSES OF EARNINGS-RELATED CONTRIBUTIONS IN PARTICULAR CASES
Apportionment of earnings comprised in a cash or non-cash voucher provided for benefit of two or more employed earners
15.
(1)
The amount of earnings comprised in any payment by way of a cash voucher or a non-cash voucher provided for the benefit of two or more employed earners and which falls to be taken into account in computing the earnings of each of those earners shall be calculated or estimated on the basis set out in whichever of sub-paragraphs (2) or (3) applies.
(2)
If the respective proportion of the benefit of the voucher to which each of those earners is entitled is know at the time of the payment, the basis is that of a separate payment equal to that proportion.
(3)
In any case where the respective proportions are not know at the time of the payment, the basis is equal apportionment between all those earners.
(4)
In this paragraph—
(a)
“chargeable expense” has the same meaning, and is calculated in the same way, as in paragraph 14; and
(b)
if an employed earner makes good any part of the chargeable expense to the person incurring it, that chargeable expense in relation to that employed earner shall be reduced by that part.
