Total tax paid
$167
Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer $24.49 to pay you $1,107. In other words, every time you spend $10 of your hard-earned money, $1.51 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
14.8%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 12.9% tax rate now rises to 14.8%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 1.9% higher than what it seemed at first.
