Total tax paid
$160
Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer $23.58 to pay you $1,066. In other words, every time you spend $10 of your hard-earned money, $1.51 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
14.7%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 12.8% tax rate now rises to 14.7%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 1.9% higher than what it seemed at first.
