How your bill is calculated

Business Rates are calculated by multiplying the rateable value against a multiplier (also known as the poundage).

There are two multipliers for 2008/09

0.458 (applicable for those who qualify for Small Business Rate Relief)
0.462 (standard multiplier)

This is the basis for calculating the rates payable for 2008/09. Any exemptions, rate relief etc is taken into consideration after this calculation.

Example

A property has a rateable value of £3,100. The rates payable (prior to any transition, relief, etc) for 2008/09 would be: £3,100 X 0.462 = £1,432.20

If Small Business Rate Relief is applicable, the calculation is changed to £3,100 X 0.458 = £1,419.80 and then 50% relief is applied.
