1. What is Rental Income Tax in the Philippines?

Rental income tax in the Philippines is a tax on income derived from leasing out properties. The tax is computed based on the gross rental income minus allowable deductions (either standard 40% deduction or actual expenses), then applying the progressive tax rates.

2. How Does the Calculator Work?

The calculator uses the following formulas:

\[ \text{Taxable Income} = \text{Gross Rental Income} - \text{Deductions (40\% standard or actual)} \] \[ \text{Tax} = \text{Taxable Income} \times \text{Progressive Rate} \]

Where:

Gross Rental Income — Total rental receipts before any deductions
Deductions — Either 40% standard deduction or actual expenses (whichever is higher)
Progressive Rates — Philippine income tax rates ranging from 0% to 35%

Explanation: The calculator first computes taxable income by subtracting deductions, then applies the appropriate tax rate based on the taxable income bracket.
