₱ 6,074
Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer ₱ 3,359 to pay you ₱ 19,586. In other words, every time you spend ₱ 10 of your hard-earned money, ₱ 3.10 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
26.5%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 13.9% tax rate now rises to 26.5%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 12.6% higher than what it seemed at first.
