Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer ₱ 1,571 to pay you ₱ 27,105. In other words, every time you spend ₱ 10 of your hard-earned money, ₱ 1.35 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
12.8%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 7.7% tax rate now rises to 12.8%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 5.1% higher than what it seemed at first.
