Total tax paid
₱ 6,816
Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer ₱ 3,807 to pay you ₱ 23,004. In other words, every time you spend ₱ 10 of your hard-earned money, ₱ 2.96 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
25.4%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 13.1% tax rate now rises to 25.4%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 12.3% higher than what it seemed at first.
