Total tax paid
₱ 11,795
Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer ₱ 6,880 to pay you ₱ 62,251. In other words, every time you spend ₱ 10 of your hard-earned money, ₱ 1.89 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
17.1%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 7.9% tax rate now rises to 17.1%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 9.2% higher than what it seemed at first.
