Total tax paid
₦34,973
Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer ₦12,600 to pay you ₦105,000. In other words, every time you spend ₦10 of your hard-earned money, ₦3.33 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
29.7%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 21.3% tax rate now rises to 29.7%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 8.4% higher than what it seemed at first.
