Total tax paid
E£ 2,197
Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer E£ 1,125 to pay you E£ 5,998. In other words, every time you spend E£ 10 of your hard-earned money, E£ 3.66 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
30.8%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 17.9% tax rate now rises to 30.8%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 12.9% higher than what it seemed at first.
