in 2015 having been suspended in 1985. CGT is charged at the rate of 5% of the gain. There are various exemptions on CGT provided under the ITA. The tax on rental income is a tax arising from the gains and profits for occupation of property. The ITA provides for various ways of taxing rental income; Where the rent is payable to a non-resident, the tenant is required to withhold 30% of the rent and remit it to the Kenya Revenue Authority. The tax withheld is a final tax. Where the rent is payable to a resident, if the property is commercial, the tenant being an appointed agent, is required to withhold 10 % of the rent. The tax withheld is not a final tax and the landlord is required to file their income tax in the usual way. Where the rent is payable to a resident and the property is residential, the landlord may opt to either pay a monthly rental income tax, computed at 10 % of the gross rent a (final tax) or pay the instalment tax and final income tax in the usual way.

Did you know that iatrogenesis is the 3rd leading cause of death in America??Doctor-induced deaths.A shocking report on iatrogenesis revealed that up to 225,000 die annually as a result of iatrogenesis.Which raises eyebrows and questions on how safe are patients(we) in the hands of doctors.
According to Wikipedia ,Iatrogenic refers to any consequence of medical treatment or advice to a patient. It also refers to the illness that results from a misdiagnosis and as a result leads to painful slow death.
This is often practised by rogue hospitals that are only interested in money and in most cases often physicians often recommend surgery even for the not serious medical cases.This reminds me of the Empire series Terrence Howard as Lucious Lyon, a former drug dealer turned hip hop mogul and the CEO of Empire Entertainment, who was misdiagonised with ALS and you even saw the depression inflicted on Him.This also reminds me of the movie SUBLIME.
The movie centers on the protagonist George Grieves , who checks into the Mt. Abaddon Hospital for a routine procedure only to find horrors await him(FYI,Grieves suffers from colon cancer). Awakening from what was supposedly a simple colonoscopy ,Grieves is told by hospital staff that due to confusion arising from similar patient names he was mistakenly given a sympathectomy to cure sweaty palms .(That's where iatrogenesis steps in.The doctors have made a medical error.
[Misdiagnosis alert]> [1st step in iatrogenesis ]
As the days tick by Mr. Grieves' post- operative experiences grow even more bizarre.(Consequences of the medical error(iatrogenesis) are being felt)until he finally realizes that he is caught inside a nightmare of his own creation and seems unable to escape or awaken back in the real world . [The iatrogenic effect]
He understands that something has gone wrong in his post-operative recovery which is keeping him trapped in this netherworld of manifestations
of all of his worst fears but he understands neither what the problem is nor what, if anything, he can do to awaken from it.We eventually see his condition from his family's perspective and it appears hopeless.The doctors explain that there was a complication during the Sympathectomy which created an air bubble in his bloodstream that eventually reached his brain and caused so much damage that he ended up in an apparently permanent vegetative state>[ Complication
arising from the misdiagnosis now manifesting] He's been dead to the outside world for 10 months and his family is being pressured to remove all artificial means of life support .[ Side effects of the medical error on the physician's part]

If you haven't watched the movie,it's time to watch it.I almost cried when I watched the entire movie.The patient ,George Grieves,later finds his ride or die wife in a romping session with the doctor.Grieves in his state later suffers under the hands of his 'black' physicians who tortures Grieves to death.This movie wrecks emotions.The movie painted a picture of what is happening in some of our hospitals.
The rogue hospitals use this as a venue for milking more cash.That's why i advise you to be wise and intelligent enough to know what's happening.Want to know whether you have been a victim of iatrogenesis??Very easy.
Some iatrogenic effects are clearly defined and are recognised with so much ease;
• A complication following a surgical operation ( e.g.Instead of having a colonoscopy(colon surgery) ,a physician performs a thoracic surgery,now the complication that arises from that medical error can make you recognize that you've been 'iatrogenised'.This can often lead to death as one becomes stressed up and suicidal thoughts flood the minds of most victims of this
unfortunate act.When visiting a hospital be well informed of your disease so as to avoid being a victim of iatrogenesis or to avoid being iatrogenised as i like to say.
