STUDY UNIT 11 INTRODUCTION AND CALCULATION OF NET TAX PAYABLE FOR AN INDIVIDUAL Amount on which tax is imposed Percentage on value or amount per unit Definition : Tax liability Calculation basis:  Income tax on income earned  Consumption tax on the sale/use of goods  Wealth taxes on the ownership of assets or capital gains made on the sale of property  Marginal tax rate = when tax base increases by R1  Statutory tax rate = rate imposed by legislation  Average tax rate = tax liability ÷ tax base  EƯective tax rate = tax liability ÷ total profit/income Compulsory payments that are imposed on citizens to raise revenue to fund general expenditure such as education, health, housing for the benefit of society as a whole. Person responsible for paying:  Direct tax: impact & incidence fall on same person (imposed on person)  Indirect tax: seller bears impact of tax, while consumer ultimately pays the tax (imposed on transaction) Methods of determining tax rate structure :  Proportional tax: levied at a fixed rate on the amount of income earned  Progressive tax: the rate that is used to calculate the tax is determined by the person’s income  Regressive tax: the tax rate decreases with the increase of a person’s income Section 5(1) determines that ‘normal’ tax must be calculated on:  Taxable income  Of the person (received by or accrued to)  For the year of assessment Normal tax (S5) Facilitated through system of employees’ tax, provisional tax and withholding tax payments . (employer = obligated to withhold to employees’ but natural person carries the burden of the tax) Tax rates are determined annually by Parliament Uses progressive rate structure: Marginal rate where max is 45% (income >R1 817 000) Average rate = Net normal tax (after rebates) / Total taxable income Natural persons : Year of assessment – Always ends on last day of February (28th/29th); unless taxpays dies, is declared insolvent or emigrates.
