Total tax paid
₦154,198
Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer ₦46,803 to pay you ₦390,021. In other words, every time you spend ₦10 of your hard-earned money, ₦3.95 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
35.3%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 27.5% tax rate now rises to 35.3%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 7.8% higher than what it seemed at first.
