Total tax paid
$775
Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer $83.98 to pay you $3,348. In other words, every time you spend $10 of your hard-earned money, $2.31 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
22.6%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 20.6% tax rate now rises to 22.6%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 2% higher than what it seemed at first.
