Total tax paid
₦81,198
Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer ₦26,308 to pay you ₦219,231. In other words, every time you spend ₦10 of your hard-earned money, ₦3.70 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
33.1%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 25% tax rate now rises to 33.1%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 8.1% higher than what it seemed at first.
