Total tax paid
₦36,749
Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer ₦13,164 to pay you ₦109,699. In other words, every time you spend ₦10 of your hard-earned money, ₦3.35 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
29.9%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 21.5% tax rate now rises to 29.9%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 8.4% higher than what it seemed at first.
