Review the operational trace execution formulas utilized by Tax Administration Jamaica (TAJ) algorithms to calculate statutory deduction balances over this gross income run.
NIS
Calculated at 3% of gross earnings up to the strict periodic insurable maximum cap threshold constraint row:
Formula: MIN(Gross, Ceiling / Freq) � 3%
Education Tax
Assessed at 2.25% flat over statutory earnings income pools (Gross pay less calculated employee NIS premium):
Formula: (Gross - NIS) � 2.25%
NHT
Calculated globally at a 2% employee premium assessment against total raw baseline gross emoluments without threshold limit caps:
Formula: Gross � 2%
Income Tax
Assessed on chargeable income after NIS and the pro-rated tax-free threshold are applied. Education Tax remains a separate statutory deduction.
Formula: ((Gross - NIS) - Threshold) x 25%
