CTFL Exam - Question 33


In a system designed to work out the employee tax to be paid:

_ An employee has $4,000 of salary tax free.

_ The next $1,500 is taxed at 10%.

_ The next $28,000 after that is taxed at 22%.

_ Any further amount is taxed at 40%.

Which of these is a valid Boundary Value Analysis test case?

Show Answer
Correct Answer: C

As per Boundary Value Analysis (BVA), we test the boundaries between partitions. In this question, the boundaries are at the transition points of different tax rates. The boundaries are: $4,000 (tax-free limit), $5,500 ($4,000 + $1,500 taxed at 10%), $33,500 ($5,500 + $28,000 taxed at 22%). Option C, $33,501, is just above the $33,500 boundary, making it a valid BVA test case.

This can be A or B. Because boundary value analysis must always check the boundary as well
