Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer ₱ 874 to pay you ₱ 20,315. In other words, every time you spend ₱ 10 of your hard-earned money, ₱ 1.72 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
16.5%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 12.9% tax rate now rises to 16.5%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 3.6% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make ₱ 487,560 a year living in Philippines, you will be taxed ₱ 62,964. That means that your net pay will be ₱ 424,596 per year, or ₱ 35,383 per month. Your average tax rate is 12.9% and your marginal tax rate is 25.0%. This marginal tax rate means that your immediate additional income will be taxed at this rate. For instance, an increase of ₱ 100 in your salary will be taxed ₱ 25.03, hence, your net pay will only increase by ₱ 74.97.
Bonus Example
A ₱ 1,000 bonus will generate an extra ₱ 750 of net incomes. A ₱ 5,000 bonus will generate an extra ₱ 3,749 of net incomes.
