Solution

Jingyi's assessable income for Australian tax purposes would include all income earned both in Australia and overseas. This includes:

  1. $40,000 from a rental property in Brisbane.
  2. 20,000earnedwhileemployedintheUnitedKingdom.Thefactthat20,000 earned while employed in the United Kingdom. The fact that 6,000 in income tax was collected in the UK does not affect the assessable income for Australian tax purposes.
  3. $10,000 from an unfranked dividend from an Australian company. The fact that it was subjected to withholding tax does not affect the assessable income.
  4. $2,000 dividend from a Korean company. Even though the company derives its profits in Korea, the dividend is still part of Jingyi's assessable income as a foreign resident for Australian tax purposes.

Adding these amounts together, Jingyi’s Australian assessable income for the current income year would be 72,000.Therefore,thecorrectansweris[E]72,000. Therefore, the correct answer is [E] 72,000.
