Second, my total taxable income for the year being assessed is unusual in the sense that it in...

Tax on pension fund employee and employer contribution
Posted 23 September 2015
If my gross salary is R14000. And the employer now decides to join a pension fund and will contribute 5% and the other 5% will be a deduction from the employee. How much is the taxable income now?
Does it stay R14000 since the R700 now becomes part of the employees income and will be deducted before tax? and the employees contribution is just a normal deduction and not tax deductible?

Home Office property business expense calculations?
Posted 22 September 2015
We run a small hair salon from home for my wife, she does business as a sole-proprietor and the salon is her sole income source. I understand that we can deduct for ease of explanation 10% (amount of space occupied by the salon in relation to the whole property) from all rates and taxes, electricity etc. I am unsure about the interest/rent piece. Can the salon pay "rent" or can you just subtract 10% of the interest on the bond as business expense (bond is in my name). I've also read that deducting this piece as a business expense now can influence your Capital Gains Tax waiver amount when selling the property later on, is this the case?...
