document.getElementById('calculate-tax').addEventListener('click', function() {
var category = document.getElementById('category').value;
var filerStatus = document.getElementById('filer_status').value;
var amount = parseFloat(document.getElementById('amount').value);

if (isNaN(amount) || amount <= 0) {
document.getElementById('tax-result').innerText = 'Please enter a valid amount.';
return;
}

var taxRates = {

'life_insurance_agents': { 'filer': 8, 'non_filer': 16 },
'other_cases': { 'filer': 12, 'non_filer': 24 }
};

// Apply tax logic based on the selected category and amount
var taxRate;

if (category === 'life_insurance_agents' && amount > 5000000) {
// Use the tax rate for Other Cases if amount exceeds 5 million
taxRate = taxRates['other_cases'][filerStatus];
} else {
taxRate = taxRates[category][filerStatus];
}

var calculatedTax = (taxRate / 100) * amount;

document.getElementById('tax-result').innerText = 'The applicable tax rate is ' + taxRate + '%. Calculated Tax Amount: PKR ' + calculatedTax.toFixed(2);
