kept valid and accurate records of business distances travelled but kept no records of costs incurred. The
total distance travelled during the period amounted to 11 000 kilometers, of which 3 000 kilometers were
for private purposes.

dealer (a registered VAT vendor) during 2017.

Ivan’s employer gave him the right to use a company-owned cell phone from 1 June 2019 until the date of
his retirement. The company purchased the phone at a cost of R7 200 on 1 November 2018. The market
value of the cell phone was R6 000 at the time Ivan received the right of use. Ivan used the phone 80%
for business purposes and 20% for private purposes.
3. Bursary
At the beginning of the 2020 year of assessment, Ivan’s employer agreed to grant a bursary to Ivan’s 28-
year old daughter. The bursary of R15 000 enabled his daughter to further her post-graduate university
studies (NQF level 9) at a recognised educational institution. Assume Ivan’s remuneration proxy for the
current year of assessment amounted to R840 000, based on 2019 year of assessment figures. No
