Total tax paid
₦78,338
Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer ₦25,477 to pay you ₦212,306. In other words, every time you spend ₦10 of your hard-earned money, ₦3.69 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
32.9%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 24.9% tax rate now rises to 32.9%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 8% higher than what it seemed at first.
