Ex:
Mrs. Alwis who is a resident employee of a government institution, will receive an incentive of Rs. 400,000.00 in April, 2023. Her monthly regular profits and gains from employment (including non-cash benefits) is Rs. 120,000.00.
(Hint: The amount of monthly earnings of Mrs. Alwis remains unchanged for the Y/A 2023/2024)
Tax deductible on the incentive payable in April, 2023 should be computed using the above formula.
Computation of tax deductible on the incentive to be paid in April, 2023
Step 01 –Computation of Estimated Gross Aggregate Remunerations during the Y/A 2023/2024
Rs. | |
Gross aggregate monthly remunerations already paid during the Y/A 2023/2024 (Monthly remuneration of April 2023, i.e. Rs.120,000 x 1) |
= (A): 120,000 |
Gross aggregate monthly remunerations payable during the Y/A 2023/2024 (Monthly remuneration payable for May, 2023 – March, 2024, i.e. Rs. 120,000 x 11) |
= (B): 1,320,000 |
Gross aggregate lump-sum payments already made, being made now, & payable during the Y/A 2023/2024 (Amount of incentive to be received in April, 2023, i.e. Rs. 400,000) |
= (C): 400,000 |
Estimated Gross Aggregate Remunerations EGAR (paid and payable) during the Y/A 2023/2024 | = (D): 1,840,000 |
Therefore, tax deductible on the incentive in April, 2023 is Rs. 32,400 (As per the formula)
