Total tax paid
R 16 804
Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer R 788 to pay you R 61 090. In other words, every time you spend R 10 of your hard-earned money, R 2.75 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
27.2%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 26.2% tax rate now rises to 27.2%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 1% higher than what it seemed at first.
