Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer ₱ 7,580 to pay you ₱ 71,047. In other words, every time you spend ₱ 10 of your hard-earned money, ₱ 1.82 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
16.4%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 7.5% tax rate now rises to 16.4%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 8.9% higher than what it seemed at first.
