Total tax paid
₱ 190
Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer ₱ 109 to pay you ₱ 906. In other words, every time you spend ₱ 10 of your hard-earned money, ₱ 2.09 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
18.7%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 8.9% tax rate now rises to 18.7%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 9.8% higher than what it seemed at first.
