Total tax paid
₱ 1,431
Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer ₱ 862 to pay you ₱ 9,299. In other words, every time you spend ₱ 10 of your hard-earned money, ₱ 1.54 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
14.1%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 6.1% tax rate now rises to 14.1%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 8% higher than what it seemed at first.
