Total tax paid
E£ 165
Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer E£ 102 to pay you E£ 1,275. In other words, every time you spend E£ 10 of your hard-earned money, E£ 1.29 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
12.0%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 5% tax rate now rises to 12.0%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 7% higher than what it seemed at first.
