In the exam (Norwegian)

- bHe does not have to pay tax.Han slipper å betale skatt.
- cThe employer deducts 50 per cent tax from his pay.Arbeidsgiveren trekker 50 prosent skatt av lønnen.Correct answer
Why?
The tax deduction card tells the employer how much tax to deduct from the pay. Without a tax deduction card, the employer must deduct 50 per cent. You order a tax deduction card from the Norwegian Tax Administration (Skatteetaten).
