Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify non-tax revenue items from the financial data
License fees and court fines (₦65 billion\text{₦}65\text{ billion}) and Dividends from state-owned enterprises (₦85 billion\text{₦}85\text{ billion}) are non-tax revenues. Taxes such as Petroleum Profit Tax, VAT, and duties are tax revenues.
Non-tax revenue includes income earned from administrative fees, penalties, state property, and enterprise profits rather than compulsory levies on income or goods.

Sum the non-tax revenue items
₦65 billion+₦85 billion=₦150 billion\text{₦}65\text{ billion} + \text{₦}85\text{ billion} = \text{₦}150\text{ billion}
Calculating total non-tax earnings requires adding all individual non-tax components.
