Salaries tax worksheet: Answers and working

Part A: Working out and filling in

  1. 1. 2,920

    The first 50000 × 2% = 1000, the next (82000 − 50000) × 6% = 1920, 2920 in all.

  2. 2. 1,000, 3,000, 3,200, 7,200

    50000 × 2% = 1000, 50000 × 6% = 3000, 32000 × 10% = 3200, so 1000 + 3000 + 3200 = 7200.

  3. 3. 8,300

    Net chargeable income = 292000 − 17000 − 132000 = 143000; taxed band by band, 8300.

  4. 4. 28,750

    Net chargeable income = 413000 − 6000 − 132000 = 275000; taxed band by band, 28750.

  5. 5. 78,880, 18,000, 60,880

    464000 × 17% = 78880; the first four bands of 50000 charge 50000 × (15% + 11% + 7% + 3%) = 18000 less; 78880 − 18000 = 60880. Band by band gives 60880 too.

  6. 6. 7.8

    Net chargeable income 680000 − 264000 = 416000, tax 52720; 52720 ÷ 680000 × 100% is about 7.8%.

  7. 7. 0.4

    Net chargeable income 320000 − 264000 = 56000, tax 1360; 1360 ÷ 320000 × 100% is about 0.4%.

Part B: Choose, or true or false

  1. 8. C. $258,000

    540000 − 18000 − 264000 = 258000.

  2. 9. False

    Band by band it is 15720. 198000 × 17% = 33660 charges every band at the top rate: too much.

  3. 10. C. $288,000

    432000 − 12000 − 132000 = 288000.

  4. 11. A. $16,000

    Progressive: (470000 − 6000 − 264000) band by band, 16000; standard: (470000 − 6000) × 15% = 69600; the lower is 16000.

  5. 12. C. $162,540

    Progressive: (1200000 − 6000 − 132000) band by band, 162540; standard: (1200000 − 6000) × 15% = 179100; the lower is 162540.

  3. 15. 30,280 dollars

    The year's income is 12 × 36000 = 432000; net chargeable income 432000 − 16000 − 132000 = 284000; band by band, 30280.

  4. 16. False

    The extra 20000 is taxed in the bands it falls in: the taxes on 190000 and 170000 differ by 2800. All at 17% would be 3400.

  5. 17. 289,000, 31,130

    437000 − 16000 − 132000 = 289000, then band by band: 31130.

  6. 18. B. $2,640

    Work out the tax on 121000 and on 91000 band by band, then subtract: 2640.
