For example......
a 1.8 Litre car pays 75% of $4.00 a cc for 1800cc
$4 a cc for 1800cc is $7200
75% of $7200 is $5400
Now.........add the MVT to the landed cost of the car in the port.
Good.....
Now calculate 35% of that value(MVT+landed cost). This is the duty payable.........
Good......
Now add that to the landed cost and MVT.
Good......
Now calculate 15% to that value(MVT+landed cost+Duty). This is VAT.........
Good.......
Now add that to the Landed cost, MVT and Duty.
Good.......
now add a few hundred for registration, weighing, plates and gas.
AND....you have what you pay for your car.
Now you see why 2litre and above is a killer!!!
