Step-by-step solution

6 steps

To find the tax payable, we will apply the given tax rates to the Adjusted Taxable Income of Sh. 554,000.

  1. Calculate tax on the first Sh.

    120,000.

    Tax=120,000×0.10=Sh. 12,000\text{Tax} = 120,000 \times 0.10 = \text{Sh. } 12,000
  2. Calculate tax on the next Sh.

    120,000.

    Tax=120,000×0.15=Sh. 18,000\text{Tax} = 120,000 \times 0.15 = \text{Sh. } 18,000
  3. Calculate tax on the next Sh.

    120,000.

    Tax=120,000×0.20=Sh. 24,000\text{Tax} = 120,000 \times 0.20 = \text{Sh. } 24,000
  4. Calculate tax on the next Sh.

    120,000.

    Tax=120,000×0.25=Sh. 30,000\text{Tax} = 120,000 \times 0.25 = \text{Sh. } 30,000
  5. Calculate tax on the remaining income.

    The total income taxed so far is 120,000+120,000+120,000+120,000=Sh. 480,000120,000 + 120,000 + 120,000 + 120,000 = \text{Sh. } 480,000.
    Remaining income to be taxed at 30% is 554,000−480,000=Sh. 74,000554,000 - 480,000 = \text{Sh. } 74,000.

    Tax=74,000×0.30=Sh. 22,200\text{Tax} = 74,000 \times 0.30 = \text{Sh. } 22,200
  6. Calculate the total tax payable.

    Total Tax Payable=12,000+18,000+24,000+30,000+22,200\text{Total Tax Payable} = 12,000 + 18,000 + 24,000 + 30,000 + 22,200 Total Tax Payable=Sh. 106,200\text{Total Tax Payable} = \boxed{\text{Sh. } 106,200}
