a.    `$80\ 021`

b.    `$17\ 554.77`

c.    `$1369.81\ text(refund)`

Show Worked Solution

a.   `text(Taxable income)= 82\ 521 + 10\ 920-13\ 420= $80\ 021`

b.   `text(Tax payable)= 17\ 547 + (80\ 021-80\ 000) xx 0.37= $17\ 554.77`

c.   `text(Total tax payable)= 17\ 554.77 + 1600.42= $19\ 155.19`

`text(Tax paid > tax payable)`

`:.\ text(Refund)= 20\ 525-19\ 155.19= $1369.81`
