b. Net tax payable for the 2017/18 tax year.

This is my answer for part b but I haven't finish it yet because I have struggle with two parts of it

Taxable income is $46,000

Tax on taxable income = 3,572 + 32.5% * ($46,000 - 37,000) =6497

Add : Medicare levy = 2% * $46,000= 920

Add superannuation tax offset = I don't know know how to calculate the superannuation tax offset

Privet health insurance tax offset = 3000 *21.612% = 648.36

Franking tax offset = 2100

Less : PAYG tax withheld = $1,500

Less : low tax income offset = 445 -(1.5%* (46,000-37,000)) = 310

Net tax payable =
