Illustrative Problem 1. Mr. JKS, an accountant of ABC Company, earned annual compensation
income of P1,500,000 in 2023, inclusive of the 13 th month and other benefits in the amount of
P120,000 but net of mandatory contributions to SSS and PhilHealth. Aside from the employment
income, he owns a convenience store with gross sales of P2,400,000. His cost of sales and operating
expenses are P1,000,000 and P600,000, respectively, and with non-operating income of P100,000.
a. His tax due for 2023 shall be computed as follows if he opted to be taxed at 8% income tax
rate on his gross sales for his income from business:
Tax Due:
On Compensation:
On P 800,000 P 102,500
On excess (P1,440,000-P800,000) x 25% 160,000
Tax due on Compensation Income P 262,500
On Business Income:
Gross Sales P 2,400,000
Add: Non-operating Income 100,000
Taxable Business Income 2,500,000
Multiply by income tax rate 8%
Tax Due to Business Income P 200,000
- The option of 8% income tax rate is applicable only to taxpayer’s income from business,
and the same is in lieu of the income tax under the graduated income tax rates and the
percentage tax under Section 116 of the Tax Code, as amended.
- The amount of P250,000 allowed as a deduction under the law for taxpayers earning
solely from self-employment/ practice of the profession is not applicable for a mixed-
income earner under the 8% income tax rate option.
- The P250,000 mentioned above is already incorporated in the first tier of the graduated
income tax rates applicable to compensation income.
b. His tax due for 2018 shall be computed as follows if he did not opt for the 8% income tax
based on gross sales/receipts and other non-operating income:
Tax Due:
On P 2,000,000 P 402,500
On excess ( P 2,340,000-2,000,000) x 30% 102,200
Total Income Tax P 504,700
*The taxable income from both compensation and business shall be combined for the
purpose of computing the income tax due if the taxpayer chose to be subject under the
graduated income tax rates.
