Total tax paid
₱ 14,763
Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer ₱ 8,776 to pay you ₱ 88,400. In other words, every time you spend ₱ 10 of your hard-earned money, ₱ 1.67 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
15.2%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 6.8% tax rate now rises to 15.2%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 8.4% higher than what it seemed at first.
