Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer ₱ 6,418 to pay you ₱ 56,458. In other words, every time you spend ₱ 10 of your hard-earned money, ₱ 1.96 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
17.6%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 8.2% tax rate now rises to 17.6%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 9.4% higher than what it seemed at first.
