Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer ₦2,057,790 to pay you ₦17,148,252. In other words, every time you spend ₦10 of your hard-earned money, ₦4.39 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
39.2%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 31.9% tax rate now rises to 39.2%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 7.3% higher than what it seemed at first.
