Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer ₱ 874 to pay you ₱ 54,275. In other words, every time you spend ₱ 10 of your hard-earned money, ₱ 2.44 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
24.0%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 22.8% tax rate now rises to 24.0%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 1.2% higher than what it seemed at first.
