Task 4.2: calculate total duty, excise, VAT, Sur tax and withholding tax payable at the time of import
Task 4.3: based on the data given above determine cash in the bank at the end of the month
Task 4.4: determine the total cost of each imported diesel vehicle motor with cylinder capacity 1300 cc
Task 4.1:
Cost of imported diesel vehicle motor before duty and tax payable:
FOB Value = EURO 50,000
Insurance = EURO 53,800
Freight = EURO 98,200
Bank service charge = 1.5% of FOB Value = 0.015 x 50,000 = EURO 750
Total cost before duty and tax = 50,000 + 53,800 + 98,200 + 750 = EURO 202,750
Exchange rate:
Buying rate = 26.57
Total cost before duty and tax in BIRR:
202,750 x 26.57 = BIRR 5,385,917.50
Task 4.2:
Total duty, excise, VAT, Sur tax, and withholding tax payable:
Duty = 35% of total cost before duty and tax = 0.35 x 5,385,917.50 = BIRR 1,885,071.13
Excise Tax = 30% of total cost before duty and tax = 0.30 x 5,385,917.50 = BIRR 1,615,775.25
VAT = 15% of total cost before duty and tax = 0.15 x 5,385,917.50 = BIRR 807,887.63
Sur tax = 10% of total cost before duty and tax = 0.10 x 5,385,917.50 = BIRR 538,591.75
Withholding tax = 3% of total cost before duty and tax = 0.03 x 5,385,917.50 = BIRR 161,577.25
Total duty, excise, VAT, Sur tax, and withholding tax payable = 1,885,071.13 + 1,615,775.25 + 807,887.63 + 538,591.75 + 161,577.25 = BIRR 5,008,903.01
Task 4.3:
Cash in the bank at the end of the month:
Cash balance at the beginning of the month = BIRR 15,250,000.00
Cash inflow from importing diesel vehicles = BIRR 5,385,917.50
Cash outflow for duty, excise, VAT, Sur tax, and withholding tax = BIRR 5,008,903.01
Net cash inflow = 5,385,917.50 - 5,008,903.01 = BIRR 377,014.49
Cash in the bank at the end of the month = 15,250,000.00 + 377,014.49 = BIRR 15,627,014.49
Task 4.4:
Total cost of each imported diesel vehicle motor with cylinder capacity 1300 cc:
Total cost of one imported diesel vehicle motor = total cost before duty and tax + total duty, excise, VAT, Sur tax, and withholding tax payable
Total cost of one imported diesel vehicle motor = 5,385,917.50 + 5,008,903.01 = BIRR 10,394,820.51
