To calculate the additional medical expenses tax credit, we need to follow the formula provided
by the South African Revenue Service (SARS):
Additional Medical Expenses Tax Credit = (Medical Scheme Contributions + Qualifying Medical
Expenses) * 25% - (3 * Taxable Income - 52800) * 7.5%
Given the values:
Medical Scheme Contributions = R5,500 * 12 months = R66,000
Qualifying Medical Expenses = R12,500
Taxable Income = R250,000
Plugging in these values:
Additional Medical Expenses Tax Credit = (66000 + 12500) * 25% - (3 * 250000 - 52800) * 7.5% =
(78500) * 25% - (642000) * 7.5% = R19625 - R48150 = -R28525
However, the additional medical expenses tax credit cannot be negative. It's limited to the lesser
of:
1. 33.3% of (Medical Scheme Contributions + Qualifying Medical Expenses), or
2. 25% of Taxable Income
In this case, the lesser value is 25% of Taxable Income, which is 0.25 * 250000 = R62500.
So, the correct answer is:
, a. R0

Yellow is 39 years old. During the current year of assessment, he had a taxable income of R278
667. His employer deducted PAYE of R60 394. YOU ARE REQUIRED to calculate his normal tax
liability/refundable. (round your answer to the nearest Rand) Select one: a. R37 948 refundable
from SARS b. R37 948 payable to SARS c. R22 446 payable to SARS d. R22 446 refundable from
SARS

To calculate Jan Yellow's normal tax liability/refundable, we need to use the progressive tax rates
in South Africa for the specific income range.
Given:
Taxable Income: R278,667
PAYE deducted: R60,394
First, let's calculate the tax amount based on the progressive tax rates:
1. Up to R205,900: 18% tax rate
2. R205,901 to R321,600: 26% tax rate
3. R321,601 to R445,100: 31% tax rate
4. R445,101 to R584,200: 36% tax rate
5. Above R584,200: 39% tax rate
Tax calculation:
1. Tax on first R205,900: 0.18 * 205900 = R37,062
2. Tax on next (321600 - 205900): 0.26 * (321600 - 205900) = R29,872
3. Total tax: 37062 + 29872 = R66,934
Jan's employer deducted PAYE of R60,394. To determine his refundable or payable amount, we
subtract the PAYE from the calculated tax:
Tax liability/refundable = Tax - PAYE = 66934 - 60394 = R6,540
Since the calculated tax is higher than the deducted PAYE, Jan would have to pay an additional
amount to SARS. Therefore, the correct answer is:
c. R22,446 payable to SARS
