Total tax paid
₱ 3,184
Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer ₱ 1,541 to pay you ₱ 24,950. In other words, every time you spend ₱ 10 of your hard-earned money, ₱ 1.28 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
12.0%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 6.6% tax rate now rises to 12.0%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 5.4% higher than what it seemed at first.
