Here are the calculations for Mr. Candy's tax and take-home pay:

1.4.1 Calculate Mr. Candy's monthly income tax (PAYE)

  1. Calculate Mr.

    Candy's total annual deductions.
    First, we find the annual pension fund and UIF deductions.

    Annual Pension Fund=R5950.50×12=R71406.00\text{Annual Pension Fund} = \text{R}5950.50 \times 12 = \text{R}71406.00 Annual UIF=R142.72×12=R1712.64\text{Annual UIF} = \text{R}142.72 \times 12 = \text{R}1712.64 Total Annual Deductions=R71406.00+R1712.64=R73118.64\text{Total Annual Deductions} = \text{R}71406.00 + \text{R}1712.64 = \text{R}73118.64
  2. Calculate Mr.

    Candy's taxable income.
    Taxable income is the total income minus the non-taxable deductions.

    Taxable Income=R1075060.00−R73118.64=R1001941.36\text{Taxable Income} = \text{R}1075060.00 - \text{R}73118.64 = \text{R}1001941.36
  3. Calculate Mr.

    Candy's annual income tax (PAYE) using the tax table.
    Mr. Candy's taxable income of R1 001 941.36 falls into the tax bracket R708 311 – R1 500 000.
    The tax formula for this bracket is R207 448 + 41% of taxable income above R708 310.

    Taxable Income above R708310=R1001941.36−R708310=R293631.36\text{Taxable Income above R}708310 = \text{R}1001941.36 - \text{R}708310 = \text{R}293631.36 Tax on this portion=0.41×R293631.36=R120389.8576\text{Tax on this portion} = 0.41 \times \text{R}293631.36 = \text{R}120389.8576 Annual Income Tax (PAYE)=R207448+R120389.8576=R327837.8576\text{Annual Income Tax (PAYE)} = \text{R}207448 + \text{R}120389.8576 = \text{R}327837.8576
  4. Calculate Mr.

    Candy's monthly income tax (PAYE).

    Monthly PAYE=R327837.857612=R27319.82146...\text{Monthly PAYE} = \frac{\text{R}327837.8576}{12} = \text{R}27319.82146...

    Rounded to two decimal places, Mr. Candy's monthly income tax is:

    R27319.82\boxed{\text{R}27319.82}

    1.4.2 What was Mr. Candy's monthly take-home pay during the 2020 tax year?

  5. Calculate Mr.

    Candy's monthly gross income.

    Monthly Gross Income=R1075060.0012=R89588.3333...\text{Monthly Gross Income} = \frac{\text{R}1075060.00}{12} = \text{R}89588.3333...
  6. Calculate Mr.

    Candy's total monthly deductions.
    This includes the monthly pension fund, UIF, and the calculated monthly PAYE.

    Total Monthly Deductions=R5950.50+R142.72+R27319.82146...=R33413.04146...\text{Total Monthly Deductions} = \text{R}5950.50 + \text{R}142.72 + \text{R}27319.82146... = \text{R}33413.04146...
  7. Calculate Mr.

    Candy's monthly take-home pay.

    Monthly Take-Home Pay=Monthly Gross Income−Total Monthly Deductions\text{Monthly Take-Home Pay} = \text{Monthly Gross Income} - \text{Total Monthly Deductions} Monthly Take-Home Pay=R89588.3333...−R33413.04146...=R56175.29187...\text{Monthly Take-Home Pay} = \text{R}89588.3333... - \text{R}33413.04146... = \text{R}56175.29187...

    Rounded to two decimal places, Mr. Candy's monthly take-home pay is:

    R56175.29\boxed{\text{R}56175.29}
