1.Calculate Prepayment of Profit Tax  (now it is called prepayment of income tax).

2.Tax on profit ( now  it is called tax on income )

3. Profit tax payable ( now it is called Income Tax Payable )

Solution

1.Prepayment of Profit Tax (PPT)

PPT base = $11,000/1.1=$10,000 ( amount before 10% VAT)

PPT = 10,000 x 1%=$100

2.Tax on Profit  ( Tax on Income ), rate of 20% ( standard rate)

Taxable Profit = Tax revenue – tax expense = 10,000-2,000=8,000$

Tax on profit ( tax on income)=8,000 x 20%=$1,600

3.Profit Tax Payable ( Income Tax Payable)

Profit Tax payable = tax on profit – PPT = 1,600-100=$1,500
