Total tax paid
₱ 79.22
Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer ₱ 48.12 to pay you ₱ 523. In other words, every time you spend ₱ 10 of your hard-earned money, ₱ 1.51 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
13.9%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 5.9% tax rate now rises to 13.9%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 8% higher than what it seemed at first.
