Peter has taxable income as follows:
Non-savings Income 2,000
Savings Income 6,410
a.882
b.482
c.1,082
d.1,682
In the answer it says, a direct 20% on Non-savings Income, but aren’t we suppose to deduct the PA first applicable to NSI, which would make a nil(0) tax on NSI
BPP says, the answer is 882
where as I only get a mere 82
Please help.
Apologies, the question is in the BPP Study Text Question Bank, Question 6
I do not have the BPP study material but your problem is that you have not read the question properly – a usual student problem I would add and a major factor in students getting MCQ’s wrong!
Look at the first line in the question – it says TAXABLE income – so the PA has already been deducted!
Excellent.
Thank you very much 🙂
