jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):

in the first step you need subtracting from income amount the expenses taxe amount

OpenStudy (raffle_snaffle):

OpenStudy (raffle_snaffle):

Look at my work, the attached image

jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):

sorry but i not can seeing it clearly

OpenStudy (raffle_snaffle):

jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):

so than you have got this 120454 so the effective taxe rate you need to calcule again - do you know it how ? taxe rate you need represent it in percent of - yes ?

OpenStudy (raffle_snaffle):

Yes I used the rate and got 30227.06

OpenStudy (raffle_snaffle):

OpenStudy (raffle_snaffle):

OpenStudy (raffle_snaffle):

jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):

jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):

154340 --- 100% 33886 ----- x % ----------------- x= 33886*100/154340 = ? % the taxe rate

jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):

you have got it in this way ?

OpenStudy (raffle_snaffle):

220% lol I don't think that is right

OpenStudy (raffle_snaffle):

you mean 33886*(0.100) ???

jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):

this dont result 220% please calcule it newly

OpenStudy (raffle_snaffle):

I did and got 22.08%

jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):

not exactly i have got 21,95%

jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):
