Solution

The assessable income of the taxpayer for the year would be calculated by adding the Salary and the Interest because these are the only two incomes that are taxable. Superannuation and lottery winnings are not considered assessable income for tax purposes in Australia.

So, the calculation would be:

Salary: 102,000Interest:102,000 Interest: 250

Total assessable income = 102,000(Salary)+102,000 (Salary) + 250 (Interest) = $102,250

So, the answer is d. $102,250.
