How To Calculate How Much You Receive As A State Pension

How much do I receive as a state pension?

At the moment, the basic state pension is £87 and 30 pence a week. But that does change each year, and it tends to rise each year. You can also get more than that, because while you're working you have the option, if you want, to put more of your earnings into the state scheme, and that helps to obviously boost pension and retirement.
