Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer E£ 1,760 to pay you E£ 10,045. In other words, every time you spend E£ 10 of your hard-earned money, E£ 3.92 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
33.4%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 21.7% tax rate now rises to 33.4%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 11.7% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make E£ 120,540 a year living in Egypt, you will be taxed E£ 26,144. That means that your net pay will be E£ 94,396 per year, or E£ 7,866 per month. Your average tax rate is 21.7% and your marginal tax rate is 23.3%. This marginal tax rate means that your immediate additional income will be taxed at this rate. For instance, an increase of E£ 100 in your salary will be taxed E£ 23.25, hence, your net pay will only increase by E£ 76.75.
Bonus Example
A E£ 1,000 bonus will generate an extra E£ 768 of net incomes. A E£ 5,000 bonus will generate an extra E£ 3,838 of net incomes.
