Hi guys,

I have a question regarding the foreign source income.

Example:

I, an Australian resident, derived the following items in the current income year:

-a salary $185,000 from my employer;

- dividend $1,800 from a foreign company (net of withholding tax of $200)

- interest income $2,000 from a bank account in Brazil ( no tax treaty partner, no foreign tax paid).

No other income or deduction.

What is my tax liability?


So I have the assessable income of $185,000 + $1,800 + $2,000 = $188,500

income tax = $54,547 + $1,575=$56,122

less deduction: $200

= $55,922 ?

Cheers.
