Total tax paid
E£ 292
Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer E£ 180 to pay you E£ 1,484. In other words, every time you spend E£ 10 of your hard-earned money, E£ 1.97 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
17.5%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 7.5% tax rate now rises to 17.5%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 10% higher than what it seemed at first.
