Self employed spouse visa threshold

[boons]

Hi,

Can someone please clarify about the self employed threshhold needed for spouse visa application in uk
(£18,600)

Their are several figures which you get:

Overall takings (before tax and allowances)

taxible profits from business (after tax)

figure after personal allowance taken off net profit (£8000)

Which figure do they require?
Also do they include personal allowance as part of the threshhold? as this is over £8000
For example:
I earn £30000 takings, profit after expenses and annual investment allowance = £20000 (net profit)
Is this the figure they look at, because that £20000 goes down to £12000 when personal allowance is taken off. (which everyone gets)
Please tell me which is the figure they want????
Thanks
boons

taxible profits from business (after tax). The personal allowance isn't deducted.
