Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer $17.70 to pay you $800. In other words, every time you spend $10 of your hard-earned money, $0.38 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
3.7%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 1.6% tax rate now rises to 3.7%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 2.1% higher than what it seemed at first.
