    2 In 2011, Victor earned a monthly salary of $3500 and received a 13th

    month bonus and a

    Performance Bonus equivalent to 1.25 months.

    In his country, income tax is payable by all employees who earns more than $25 000 per

    annum in the preceding year. Tax payable is 4.25% of the amount exceeding $25 000.

    The total amount of tax deductible which he can claim as reliefs is $2866.

    (a) Calculate his annual income earned in 2011. [2]

    (b) Calculate his income tax payable for 2012. [2]

    He has opted not to pay his income tax as a lump sum but to take advantage of the interest-

    free option of spreading out the payment over 12 months.

    (c) Calculate the tax he has to pay each month for the next 12 months. [1]

    Victor has painstakingly saved $10000 for 2011, and is considering two saving plans as

    follows:

    He plans to take either plan for a period of 10 years.

    (d) Calculate the interest he will earn in 10 years under Plan B. [2]

    (e) Which Plan will give him a better return? Justify your answer. [2]

    Plan A: Simple interest of 4.5% per annum

    Plan B: 4% per annum compounded every three months

    A ship leaves a port at P and sails 21 km

    towards a lighthouse L. It then sails 28 km towards

    an island I. The bearing of L from I is 116 and the bearing of P from I is 163.

    (a) Calculate

    (i) ILP , [4] (ii) the distance IP, [2] (iii) the bearing of P from L. [2]

    (b) The ship then returns to the port P by travelling along the route IP. Calculate the

    distance left on that journey when the ship is closest to the lighthouse L. [2]

    (c) Given that the height of the lighthouse is 500 metres, calculate the angle of depression of point P when viewed from the top of the lighthouse. [2]

    8 A company manufactures ping- pong balls, each of diameter 4 cm.

    Diagram I shows a cross-section of 7 ping-pong balls packed in a rectangular box.

    (a) Find the volume of each ping-pong ball. [1]

    (b) Calculate the total surface area of the rectangular box. [2]

    (c) Calculate the amount of space within the box which is not occupied. [3]
