AIN3701 Assignment 2 (COMPLETE ANSWERS) 2024 (592338) - DUE 12
July 2024 ; 100% TRUSTED solutions and explanations..........
Ms Jansen (financial director) once again called you to her office for some
assistance. One of the employees of Ikhishi Likagogo called the manager of
the Pay Office (reporting to Ms Jansen) to enquire how much tax he/she
needs to pay for the current year. The Pay Office manager used the tax tables
provided by the South African Revenue Services (SARS) to assist the
employee. On average, the Pay Office manager gets up to five calls every day
from employees asking this question. Ms Jansen provides you with the
following spreadsheet (as attached): You will notice in column A that there are
different tax brackets. Columns B and C put these values in different columns.
Then you will see a base amount in column D with a percentage (%) in
column E. Let me quickly explain to you how this work. Let’s say your yearly
salary is R550 000. As the salary is between R512 801 and R673 000 the
base tax amount will be R115 762 plus 36% of the amount above R512 801.
Therefore, the tax will be: (R550 000 – R512 801) x 36% + R115 762 = R129
154. The Income Tax Act allows each natural person to claim a tax rebate.
Everyone can claim a primary rebate of R17 235. After the age of 65 years,
you can claim an additional secondary rebate of R9 444. Then after 75 years
old, an additional tertiary rebate can be claimed of R3 145. Please note that
this is applicable to the 2024 tax year. The solution should also take the age
of the taxpayer into consideration. For example, let’s say you are 45 years old.
You would then be able to claim a primary rebate against the above
calculated tax. Therefore, the tax payable by you for the 2024 tax year is (if
your salary is R550 000) is: R129 154 – R17 235 = R111 919. Ms Jansen
asked you to create a button to request the employee’s salary as well as the
employee's age (in the “Taxtables” worksheet). The calculated result should
display via a message box. REQUIRED: Marks (a) Please download the
