        Tax  Question




             Mariani owns a residential house in Subang Jaya. She receives

             property assessment tax bill from Subang Jaya Municipal

             Council. It is given that the annual value is RM6 580 and the
             property assessment tax rate is 5%. Calculate the property

             assessment tax payable by Mariani for each half-year.



             Solution:
             Property assessment tax = property assessment tax rate × annual value

                                                  = 5% × RM6 580

                                                  = RM329 per year



             Property assessment tax for each half-year = RM329 2

                                                                             = RM164.50 each half-year
