Total tax paid
₦24,925
Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer ₦9,328 to pay you ₦77,731. In other words, every time you spend ₦10 of your hard-earned money, ₦3.21 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
28.6%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 20.1% tax rate now rises to 28.6%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 8.5% higher than what it seemed at first.
