Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer ₱ 2,585 to pay you ₱ 10,344. In other words, every time you spend ₱ 10 of your hard-earned money, ₱ 4.62 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
37.0%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 21.2% tax rate now rises to 37.0%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 15.8% higher than what it seemed at first.
