salary is Birr 12,000. During Miazia 2014, he worked overtime for 8
hours all on a public holiday. He has a position allowance of Birr
2500. He has also transportation allowance of Birr 2000 (non
taxable). Zelalem is a member of the saving and credit association
of his organization which to which he saves 10% of his monthly

b. Employment Income Tax
c. Total Pension contribution
d. Net pay for the month of Miazia 2014

Solution
Solution
a. Gross Earning
a. Gross Earning
GE = Basic salary + Allowances + Overtime
GE = Basic salary + Allowances + Overtime
OT earning =
OT earning = OT rate x OT hours worked X basic salary per hour
OT rate x OT hours worked X basic salary per hour
Basic salary per hour = basic salary / Normal hours per month
Basic salary per hour = basic salary / Normal hours per month
= 12,000/160
= 12,000/160
= Birr 75/hr
= Birr 75/hr
OT earnings = 2. 5 x 8 x 75 = Birr 1,500
OT earnings = 2. 5 x 8 x 75 = Birr 1,500
GE = 12,000 + 2,500+ 2,000+ 1,500 = Birr 18,000
GE = 12,000 + 2,500+ 2,000+ 1,500 = Birr 18,000
