Apologies as I'm sure this a basic question for those in the know.
I earn part of my income in the form of UK dividend earnings and the other part in the form of interest on UK Peer-to-Peer (P2P) loans and mini-bond/loan notes I make.
Are dividend earnings and interest/P2P earnings calculated completely separately? E.g. it's only because of the total sum of my dividend earnings that I am in pushed into the 32.5% higher dividend tax band and exclusively with my loan note/P2P earnings that I am pushed into the 40% higher income tax band?
No impact on each other, so in one I can be in a basic rate and in the other I can be in the higher rate?
Or are the sums from all forms of earnings added together? If so, which higher rate tax band applies - the 32.5% dividend one or the 40% income tax one?
Thank you.
