Show Worked Solution

i.   `text(Taxable income)`

`= 82\ 521 + 10\ 920-13\ 420`

`= $80\ 021`

 

ii.   `text(Tax payable)`

`= 17\ 547 + (80\ 021-80\ 000) xx 0.37`

`= $17\ 554.77`

 

iii.   `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`
