Example with recievable salary
How do we calculate whether you have receivable salary?
Current employment
You are employed in Mortgage Institute X with a monthly salary including fixed supplements of DKK 50,000.
You are terminated and released from notice on 31 January, with 6 months’ notice, so you will resign on 31 July. I.e. your period of being released from notice runs from 1 February to 31 July, and you are entitled to 6 months’ gross salary if you do not find a new job during the period of being released from notice.
The gross monthly salary in Mortgage Institute X is calculated as follows:
| Description | Amount |
| Monthly salary + fixed supplements [e.g. salaried employee and specialist supplements] | DKK 50,000 |
| The employer’s pension contribution [11.25%] | DKK 5,625 |
| Free phone [the taxable value you deduct] | DKK 242 |
| Free car [the taxable value you deduct] | DKK 0 |
| Insurances* [the taxable value you deduct] | DKK 400 |

*Insurances refers to, e.g.: group life insurance, accident insurance, dental insurance and health insurance. This also includes other insurances where you deduct the taxable value.
