2- Net annual income (or loss) from commercial and industrial activities → Accrual basis
(Taxable net profit (loss) = Taxable Accrued Revenues – Taxable Accrued Expenses) xx

3- Net annual income (or loss) from non-commercial and professional activities → Cash basis
(Taxable net profit (loss) = Taxable Cash Revenues – Taxable Cash Expenses) xx

a- Revenues from buildings rented according to the provisions of the civil code x
(new rent law) x 50% only
b- Revenues from furnished units x 50% only x

= Tax Base (Tax base shall be rounded to the nearest lower ten pounds) XX

1st LE 8,000 Exempted


2nd 22,000 x 10% =
3rd 15,000 x 15% =
4th 155,000 x 20% =
5th The remaining balance x 22.5% =

= Tax amount
Less: Tax Credit (If any) (x)
Any income tax paid during the year:
– Salaries tax deducted by work place (x)

– Withheld at source income tax (x)
= Due Tax XX

Remember that the “Tax Base” is the total net annual income after deducting the exempted bracket
(L.E 8,000) and this amount shall be rounded to the nearest lower ten pounds.
For example:
- L.E 90,823 rounded to L.E 90,820
- L.E 50,189 rounded to L.E 50,180
- L.E 100,019.9 rounded to L.E 100,010
