Solution

i. The annual rate that Upul has to pay is Rs. 1400 per quarter, which means Rs. 1400 * 4 = Rs. 5600 per year. If the rate of annual assessed tax levied by the municipal council is 8%, we can find the assessed value of the building by dividing the annual rate by the tax rate.

So, Assessed value = Annual rate / Tax rate = Rs. 5600 / 0.08 = Rs. 70,000

ii. If the municipal council will deduct 10% of total assessed tax for the year if paid in total before 31st of January, we can find the amount of assessed tax Upul will pay by subtracting 10% from the annual rate.

So, Assessed tax = Annual rate - (Annual rate * 10%) = Rs. 5600 - (Rs. 5600 * 0.10) = Rs. 5040

Therefore, if Upul pays the tax in total before 31st of January, he will pay Rs. 5040.
