Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer ₱ 2,579 to pay you ₱ 9,793. In other words, every time you spend ₱ 10 of your hard-earned money, ₱ 4.87 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
38.5%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 22.3% tax rate now rises to 38.5%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 16.2% higher than what it seemed at first.
