Notes

The following items were not included in the income tax return because they are
subject to final tax:

Interest on peso bank account 20,000

Capital gain on sale of shares 5,000
Dividend income 10,000
Housing benefit (3) 300,000
Philippine social tax contributions, if any, made by the resident alien and/or his
wife to the Philippine social security agencies shall be allowed as deductions from
gross income in calculating their tax liabilities for the year.
For individuals receiving salary and other allowances from one employer only, the
tax due is usually equal to tax withheld since the employer is required to compute
and withhold the total tax due on the employee's compensation earned during the
year, using the annual graduated income tax table, before paying the last payroll
for the year.
As a managerial employee, the housing benefit provided to the husband shall be
subject to FBT rather than income tax.
The above individual tax calculation also applies to non-resident aliens engaged in
trade or business in the Philippines for their Philippine-source income.
